Main Features:
Style and Decoration: The vases feature a "balustrade" body with vertical ribs that give movement to the structure. The decoration is rich and meticulous, with large floral reserves depicting peonies and chrysanthemums (symbols of nobility and longevity), surrounded by foliage motifs and geometric arabesques typical of the Arita factory.
Lids: Both vases are complete with their original lids, topped with a finely decorated lotus bud-shaped socket.
Technical Details: The mixed technique involves the use of cobalt blue applied before the display case and the remaining decorations (orange/red and gold) applied over enamel, with subsequent firing at low temperature.
Conservation Status: Excellent general condition. The brilliance of the enamels is well preserved and the gilding still retains much of its original splendor. The base features the typical unglazed ring, characteristic of ancient porcelain.
Dimensions: height 39 width 19 cm.
Era: Meiji period (1867 - 1901)
