About the Item
A Chinese porcelain vase decorated in the Japanese Kutani style, richly adorned with butterflies and floral motifs. The tall, slender form rises to a slightly flared rim, its white ground nearly covered in polychrome overglaze enamels in tones of orange, gold, black, and soft greys. Butterflies in flight are interspersed with chrysanthemums and seasonal blossoms, their finely rendered wings and petals creating a lively, all-over composition.
The decoration closely follows Japanese Kutani traditions, known for their exuberant use of color and dense surface patterning, yet this piece reflects Chinese manufacture made for export, combining Japanese-inspired aesthetics with Chinese production techniques. Standing 14 inches high, the vase presents well as a single accent on a console, mantel, or display shelf, where its detailed surface adds both color and movement. With its cross-cultural character, it appeals equally to collectors of Japanese-style porcelains and to those seeking a decorative focal point within a more eclectic interior.
