Beautiful Japanese Kutani-style porcelain vase, featuring rich cobalt and powder blue glazing with extensive hand-applied gilt decoration. The body is adorned with a detailed floral arrangement and stylized bird motif, outlined in gold, with raised enamel dot work around the neck and shoulder.
The vase has a classic baluster form with a gently flared rim and decorative banding at the base and neck. A striking decorative piece that displays well on its own or as part of a collection of Asian-inspired ceramics.
