This is an imposing early 19th century Kakiemon style porcelain vase of Japanese origin inspired by a 17th century model currently valued in excess of $700,000. A piece similar to the original dated 1680 from the Blenheim Palace collection was exhibited at the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford in 1989. 21" in height, this vase is well enameled with three identical garden scenes separated with bands of blue flowering vines. Condition: Excellent, with no chips, hairlines, or repairs.
