Old Noritake Hand Painted Poppy Gold Moriage Vase Green Gold Hardware

This is a very gorgeous vase with two handles, showcasing the craftsmanship of Old Noritake. The backstamp confirms “Hand Painted,” indicating it was individually hand-painted by artisans for export at the time. This antique piece, which garnered attention in Europe and America in the early 20th century, conveys the rich Western culture and the trend of Japonism of that era. Vivid poppy flowers are boldly and delicately depicted in deep colors against a softly glowing background covering the entire body of the vase. Elegant gold scroll patterns, resembling window frames, encircle the piece to enhance the petals' gradation and three-dimensionality. The top and bottom feature subdued green and delicate raised gold decoration, allowing you to enjoy the luxurious design from any angle. A pair of beautifully curved handles, a characteristic sculptural feature, further enhances the overall elegance of the work. It possesses both the beauty of a painting and a graceful presence, creating a distinguished atmosphere simply by placing it in a room. Please enjoy this piece, worthy of being the centerpiece of a collection, allowing you to share the artisan's attention to detail and affection. The size is 7.87 inches in height x 9.06 inches in width. There is some gold rubbing due to age, but there are no cracks, chips, or repair marks, maintaining good antique condition. We hope you enjoy the unique character of an item that has passed through many years. (Please note that some areas may appear white in photos due to light reflection, but this is not paint peeling.)
