Superb Nippon vase in cobalt porcelain and gold. Made Japan circa 1890.

8 1/2inches high.

Round foot with ovoid body, wider at top, curving neck to flaring rim. Pair of double branch-shaped handles. The cobalt body is richly decorated with gold patterns and raised jewels.
Both front and back have large oval reserves open to cross bands that circumvent the vase in a continuous scene, entirely in gold. The front shows a riverscape with swans, magnificent gold sculpted flowering trees, delicate trees in the background and raised jewel-like stars. The back has a strongly Japanese landscape scene with beautiful arching trees in front of a body of water, mountains in the background.

Marked with green Nippon Handpainted mark, used 1890-1921.

Good condition. One small, shallow/surface 'scratch' on the front, mentioned for accuracy, but perfectly acceptable for a piece of this age.
