This beautiful Nippon vase is handpainted with a serene scene of a lake and sailboats, framed above and below with poppies and leaves in yellow and orange. The flowers are outlined with gold moriage, and gold beading rims the top and circles the vase above and below the lake scene, setting off the floral areas. The stamp on the bottom is blue, and it is signed with a gold character (see photo). The vase is in excellent condition: the moriage appears to all be intact; there are no chips or cracks. There is very slight wear on the gold trim at the top, and there are small areas on a gold band where the gold paint is thin or missing, apparently in the painting and not from wear. There are 2 "pimples" in the porcelain on the back. Also, on the back just above the sailboat, there is a 1/4 inch spot where it appears the orignal glaze was not applied and was later touched up.
