Fine Japanese Ceramic Satsuma Vase by Kinkozan

Creator: Kinkozan
Offered by: Tishu

Description
A miniature Japanese ceramic vase from the end of Meiji period circa 1880s- 1910s by Kinkozan (1645-1927). One of the largest studio manufacturers of the export ceramics at the time based in Kyoto. Decorated the iconic style of satsuma made by Kinkozan using gold gilt on a cobalt blue background, the long-necked vase with elephant ear handles and elegantly flared body is finely decorated with two vignettes on the front and back. One depicts a rooster and a hen under blooming peonies, while the other birds perched on wisterias. The cobalt blue background is highlighted with kinran-de (gold paint). Around the neck there are hexagon pattern and double crane mons. Signed Kinkozan in a red seal under the base.
The painting was finely executed with great details, similar to the other miniature work from the studio of Yabu Meizan and Seikozan.
