Early 20th Century Japanese Colourful Hand Painted Ceramic Vase
Beautiful and unusual colourful handpainted naive bird and patterned vase. The bright colours stand out on the neutral base. The vase is outlined in brown and features two mock handles. The illustration seems to depict a flying bird and a kite of fan on the other side.
This vase/object would look stunning in most decors and could be equally used as a vase for flowers or just styled on a shelf. This is unlike anything I have found when researching satsuma pottery.
The markings on the bottom of the vase correlate with the information found below on the https://www.bluecherryantiques.co.uk/ information.
Kinkozan Asano Zo 金光山 浅野造 - Alternative form of writing Kinkozan. Also reads Made by Asano on the right, perhaps for the blank pot decorated by Kinkozan, or possibly a commissioning dealer. Also has the Shimazu clan mark and Made in Japan. The mark is printed on a fairly low grade vase with Geisha and Samurai with moriage, late Taisho or Showa period.
