About the Item
A Fine Japanese Cloisonné Enamel Vase with Swallows and Wisteria, Signed Goto
Meiji Period (c. 1890–1910)
Worked in silver wire , of ovoid form with gently flaring foot and rim, set on a gilt metal base. The body is finely decorated with a delicate naturalistic scene of swallows fluttering among cascading clusters of wisteria and entwined flowering vines, rendered in subtle polychrome enamels on a soft cream ground. The reverse is adorned with seasonal irises and further trailing vines, creating a continuous and lyrical composition that evokes the fleeting beauty of spring.
The enamel work is smooth and vitreous, indicating a high level of technical refinement from the golden age of Japanese cloisonné production.
The base is impressed with a three-character mark reading 後藤製 (Gotō sei – “Made by Gotō”), referencing a known cloisonné artist or workshop active during the late Meiji period.
A fine example of Japanese cloisonné art, this piece demonstrates both aesthetic charm and exceptional craftsmanship.

Large Pair of Meiji Period Japanese Cloisonne Enamel Vases Attributed to Goto
Located in New York, NY
A large pair of Meiji Period Japanese cloisonne enamel vases attributed to Goto Seizaburo, 19th century.
These vases were made during the Meiji period (1868-1912) in Japan and are characterized by their blue enamel background with intricate designs of flowers, birds (including pigeons), butterflies and landscapes.
