This is a richly decorated antique Nippon moriage footed fernery bowl dating to the early 1900s (c.1890–1910).
The form is classic Victorian decorative — three-footed with sculpted double handles and heavy raised gold moriage detailing throughout. The strawberry and blossom motif is hand painted in soft pastels over a pale celadon ground, accented by thick gilt beading around the rim and handles.
The gold work has depth and texture, not flat transfer decoration. A strong display piece with excellent visual presence.
Marked Nippon on underside (see photos).
Approximate measurements:
– ~8.5–9” handle to handle
– ~5–6” bowl opening
– ~3.5–4” tall
Condition:
Very good antique condition. Gold remains strong overall with expected light wear to gilt and feet consistent with age. No cracks or repairs observed. Interior clean. Please review all photos carefully.
A beautiful example of early Nippon decorative porcelain — ideal for display, vanity, or as a Victorian accent piece.
