Stunning vintage porcelain vase featuring Dahlias with raised gold scrolls. Enlarge the photos to see how beautiful this vase is! 99.9% sure it is old Nippon although it is not marked. The bottom rim is quite aged and worn indicating age. It was likely not made for export because it would be marked Nippon if it was. It is hand painted under glaze, drop dead gorgeous; and has a lot of gold on it. It is much more beautiful than the photos show it. The upper ruffled rim has some fleabites or paint flakes, (they look more like fleabites in the close up photos but in reality they just look like where the gold paint has flaked off, see photos 7-8). They are not even noticeable when the vase is upright and looking at from 4 inches away. This beauty is 7.25 tall x 6.5 wide. A fabulous old vase for your collection and well worth this price! 10/17
