ANTIQUE- RARE & HUGE Chinese/Japanese FAMILLE ROSE/SATSUMA handles VASE
ANTIQUE- RARE & HUGE Chinese/Japanese FAMILLE ROSE/SATSUMA handles VASE. An old, very rare & massive Japanese pottery/porcelain handled vase. The huge slant vase tapers downward, then slightly flares out at the base. Round shoulder to 2 elephant-head handles with attached (movable) rings. Copiously gild over intricate designs of phoenix, geometric fish scales, honeycombs & floral patterns. Two identical senes in opposite sides along the largest surface: a chicken family roaming in a garden blooming with pink flowers - the theme & tones somehow suggest Mandarin/famille rose flair. 16.25"413mm H(igh) x 8.5"216mm W(ide, handles included) x 3.5"89mm D(iameter, opening) x 5"127mm D(iameter, base). Excellent, except scattered small original kiln flaws/"scars" & very minor design losses. To minimize disappointment & to avoid un-necessary costs, however, please ask questions before purchasing.
