Exquisite three piece matching set of highly detailed late 19th century Japanese cloisonné vases and censer. Each of the 7" (H) vases is done primarily in shades of brown, rust, burnt yellow and green, and are mirror images of each other. The colors of the enamels are quite interesting and much of the enamel has a speckled appearance. The body of each vase has rust colored shields with goldstone and this background surrounds a Ho-Ho bird. The alternating shields, which depict a dragon, have a speckled rust/beige background (see third picture). Near the shoulder of the vases is a highly decorated burnt yellow speckled band with a flower design and this serves as the background for small cartouches that have either a central butterfly or flower. As depicted, there are several other bands of finely detailed work on each vase. Neither the base or necks of these vases are enameled. The censer matches the vases and has much smaller versions of the above motifs. The details and workmanship are extremely fine. All of these pieces are of the highest quality and in very good condition. The wires are so thin that they are sometimes difficult to discern. The inside of the censor is green enamel and the three ball feet appear to be cast brass. The underside of this piece is also decorated. The censor is 5" in height. |
