Antique Vintage Asian Carved Bone Vase or Mosaic Lacquer Vase

By 2rtistic, 1 February, 2011
Description

Outstanding Antique or Vintage Asian carved bone vaseor mosaic lacquer vase with intricate design. This must have taken ages to complete and the workmanship is outstanding! I've never seen one like this before and I fell in love with it on sight.  It has gorgeous water lotus flowers all over the vase and other floral along with lacy scrollwork. It is laquer over a very heavy brass vase and stands 7 inches tall by 5 1/4 inches wide. It is in incredible condition except for one small edge chip that is extremely narrow and only took off a sliver and two fleabites that are really tiny. Not sure of the age on this but believe it is an early piece due to extensive research.

I have the what looks like the exact same vase, but know very little about it, age and value would help.
