Description
- Haut. 38 cm, larg. 21 cm ; height 15 in ; width 8 1/4 in
decorated with Kakiemon pattern, with a pierced finial, on three scroll feet
Condition
Illustration is a little too bright, porcelain looks less white actually. The porcelain is in good condition overall (a few marks and stains on the cover) and would benefit from a slight cleaning. As expected, the gilding is a little tarnished and rubbed, on a very fine rocaille chasing. Large vase, rare to find this kind of mounts on such a scale.
