Japanese Satsuma Vase Meiji period
This is a small Japanese satsuma Vase. The vase has a scene of different characters with umbrellas, and fans carrying a Kago litter (used as a means for human transportation, similar to a maki-e design used to transport a princess Mune).
The vase is painted with much detail and color. A very beautiful piece to own and collect. There is a small crack that was repaired on the lip of the vase. Please see measurements in the photos.
