Pair of Japanese Bronze Vase with Metal Inlays by Mitsufune
About the Item
A pair of elegant vases of solid oiled bronze from the Meiji era, Japan (1868-1912). In a Classic Meiping shape, the pair has a mirrored inlay with gold, silver and red enamel that depicts a pair of roosters perched on plum branches in blossom. The workmanship of the inlay is very intricate, with expertly highlighting and details, and the bronze surface shows a wonderful oiled patina. Both are signed in Kanji by the artist Mitsufune (engraved by Guangzhou). The original wood storage boxes (tomobakos) are present. This item can only be purchased as a pair.
