A rare and very pleasing composition from the KINKŌZAN WORKSHOP - this particular vase has a waisted top section with a 3-dimensional model of an applied gilt dragon on the shoulder area. Hand painted with crisp white flowers possibly daisies or chrysanthemums, branches, and butterflies/moths, that continue around the entire body - all evidence that this was painted by a master craftsman..
Gold, maroon and burnt orange ornate borders at the top rim and waist. The painting against a striking gradient glaze transitioning from cream at the base to a rare deep purple / hints of midnight blue. Purple was associated with royalty or nobility in Japan.
Hand painted mark on the underside for Kinkozan Sobei.
Circa 1900. Awata Kiln, Kinkozan Sobei VI (1823-1884) and Kinkozan Sobei VII (1868-1927). Awata Kiln is considered to be the oldest kiln of the Kyoto ceramics.
Condition is good for age. Typical glaze craquelure & spider cracks (in glaze only) mainly evident in the cream colors at the top and bottom rims. Wear to gilt commensurate with age.
