Description
I recently received a small, 5in. vase from grandma.
There is a small note inside with a description.
It reads:
Akasuke
19c
Pigeon blood stippled silver
with transparent red enamel
Base and ring pound with silver
$200
On the bottom are 3 stamps:
Yamamoto, CLOIDONNE and a diamond with BFU(?) inside
I cannot make out exactly wants inside the diamond.
Unfortunately I can't get a good close-up shot of this.
On the vase is, what looks like bamboo with leaves
