Exquisite pair of mid Edo period large Japanese Ko-Imari porcelain vases in an attractive baluster shape boasting intricate patterns of floral and highly detailed geometric motifs that beautifully intertwine on the body of the handsome vases, creating captivating landscapes in dark blue, orange and gold details throughout, which is characteristic of Imari porcelain from the Edo Period. The two scalloped cartouches on each vase with highly decorated and elaborate borders recreate the pine, plum and bamboo motif known as “Sho-Chiku-Bai” or the “Three Friends of Winter.” The impressive pine trees in cobalt blue decorated with gold details dominate the landscape on white background. The two small delicately scalloped cartouches appearing in the middle of the long neck of the vases depict playful rabbits among trees. The late father of the collector of this exquisite pair, who operated one of the leading kilns in the historic Imari-Arita region of Japan, travelled extensively to Europe in the early 1960s with a mission that he led, to purchase and bring back to Japan antique ceramics...
