This is a very interesting old copper vase, believed to have been made in Japan or China. Its distinctive shape and high level of decoration make it a gem that stands out among the many copper vessels I have seen. The body is cylindrical, with a tightened shape at the top and bottom. The legs are slender and tapered, giving the overall design a beautiful sense of tension. This “tapered hem” design lends a special elegance to the vase's appearance. In terms of decoration, the intricate patterns encircling the upper and lower bands are particularly striking. These patterns are geometric abstractions of clouds and dragons. On both sides, small designs resembling animal or dragon faces are attached, adding to the elegant decorative beauty of the design. The copper surface has a deep amber luster from years of use, and the patina from aging captivates the viewer's heart. There are some dents and signs of use on the surface, but these are also charming elements that testify to the fact that this vase has been cherished and used for a long time. When half-filled with water and left for 24 hours, no leaks were detected. It is practical and can be used as a flower vase. Whether filled with fresh flowers, branches, or dried flowers, it will add a sense of sophistication to any space and make a statement wherever it is placed. The accompanying paulownia box is inscribed with “Tang Dynasty Ming Dynasty Antique Copper Vase...

Wood Pen Holder, Black and gold Color Japan 19th Century

A striking blue and white vase from the studio of Japanese Potter Makuzu Kozan, also known as Miyagawa Kozan (1842–1916), one of the most established and collected ceramist from Meiji Period. Born as Miyagawa Toranosuke, Kozan established his pottery studio in Yokohama around 1870s and later became one of the appointed artist to the Japanese Imperial household. His work was exhibited in many international fairs that the Meiji government participated at the turn of the century and won many grand prizes. With an impressively large size, this vase was likely made and reserved as a presentation piece for one of the many expositions the studio participated in the early 20th century. It was decorated with underglaze cobalt blue using the novel technique developed by Kozan called Fuki-e (the blow painting), in order to achieve the striking dimensional literary landscape known as "Mountain and Water". Being one of the most creative ceramists, Kozan started experimenting with new chemical colors from the West in the format of his porcelain glaze around 1880s. New colors allowed him to create underglaze designs that appeared bright, smooth and glossy. He even invented his own receipt of cobalt blue to achieve a much brighter yet softer shade, as evident on this vase. To create landscape that is realistic and dimensional, more common in the western paintings, he was inspired by the native Japanese ink painting technique developed around 1900 by Yokoyama Taikan...
