About the Item

Large Antique Japanese Satsuma Moriage Vase c.1890 An impressive and highly decorative large Japanese Satsuma moriage vase, dating from the late Edo to early Meiji period, circa 1890. This striking vase stands at an impressive height of 39.5 cm and is beautifully adorned with raised (moriage) enamel decoration in a vibrant palette of cobalt blue, green, red, yellow, and pink tones, accentuated with intricate gilding. The body is profusely hand-painted with detailed figural scenes depicting noblemen and attendants in traditional court dress, set against an elaborate landscape with architectural elements and scrolling cloud motifs. The artistry is enhanced by the classic swirling wave and geometric patterns typical of Satsuma ware of this period. The neck is elaborately decorated with moriage dragon handles and further detailed with intricate floral and scrolling designs in relief. The flared and scalloped rim adds an additional touch of elegance to the piece. The base bears a hand-painted Japanese mark in red. Condition: The vase remains in very good antique condition overall, with bright and well-preserved enamels. There are minor chips to the rim and some expected light wear consistent with age and handling. No major cracks or restorations observed. Dimensions: Height: 39.5 cm
