Pair of Antique Meiji Japanese Satsuma Heart Shaped Vases Sotheby's

About the Item

Pair of Antique Meiji Japanese Satsuma Heart Shaped Vases Sotheby's. They seem to be identical (but in mirror) but there are some nice differences. For example one has a tiger and one has a dragon. But also the dancers on 1 vase perform to a person in rest and the other one it's just the dancers.⁠ The large baluster shaped Japanese Satsuma earthenware vases are almost in heart shape. Decorated in typical enamels and gilt, with Kannon seated on rockwork surrounded by acolytes, the reverse with dancers performing. The sides with flowerheads upon a wave-like pattern, the foot and neck with bands of stylised motifs⁠ Additional information: Material: Porcelain & Pottery Region of Origin: Japan Period: 19th century Meiji Periode (1867-1912) Age: 19th century Original/Reproduction: Original Condition: Vase 1 Perfect, Vase 2 with 2 chips to the base corners.
