Japanese Vase

By TessaBarnett, 19 May, 2009
Description

Very colorful vase highlighted with liquid gold-type paint. Matte finish. Shows four ninja characters that are walking on water and walking in the air on clouds. The four figures are raised and three-dimensional around the vase. Similar to some types of Dragon-ware, but much larger. Clear signatures on the bottom of the vase indicate factory origin and artist. We are told by a friend from China that one of the symbols stands for “Green Mountain” and another is a numerical symbol for the number “22”.
