Description: Asian Pottery Vase Jar Enamel Birds Flowers Crackle Old Vintage Japanese Satsuma Description and Item Information Up for sale is this large and impressive vintage Asian pottery jar or vase. Please excuse any glare in the photos. This piece is lavishly decorated with multicolored glazes, slightly raised enamels, and splotches of gold paint. The background has a fine crackle pattern which is intentionally darkened. Decoration includes birds and flowers. The rim is unglazed, so this may have once had a lid. This pot is approximately 12 1/4 inches tall, with a maximum diameter of about 8 inches. Unpacked, this piece weighs 5 pounds `5.6 ounces. It would be a lovely addition to a collection of vintage Asian decorative arts. Identification This piece is unmarked. It bears some resemblance to Chinese pieces, but it is believed to be Japanese Satsuma ware. The exact age is not known, but it is vintage. Condition This piece looks very good overall. It may have once had a lid, as the rim is unglazed. There are no chips or cracks. There are a few craze lines which are darker and more pronounced than the others, notably on the bottom, but these still look like craze lines and not cracks; they do not appear on the interior of the piece. There is light finish wear. As made, there are variations in decoration, a few tiny bubble pops in the enamel glazes, and there is a very small fused clay bit on the lower side near the bottom edge. Please review the description and photos, and ask any necessary questions prior to bidding or buying. Terms of Sale 1. Payments Taxes may be applicable.
