Japanese vase with French gilt bronze mountings. 19th c.

About the Item

This exquisite 19th-century Japanese porcelain vase is a superb blend of Eastern craftsmanship and European opulence. The body is decorated in delicate blue and beige glaze featuring intricate floral and nature-inspired motifs on a finely crackled surface. The vase is adorned with luxurious gilt bronze mounts, including ornate ram’s head side handles and an elaborately sculpted base and rim, enhancing its neoclassical aesthetic. This fusion of Japanese artistry with French gilt bronze embellishments was popular in the 19th c. The porcelain was imported from Asia and mount with exclusive bronzes in Europe. This vase embodies refinement. The vas has a smaller restoration at the upper edge of the vase where it meets the gilt bronce part.
