Description
It appears to be handmade and painted in areas because the rim is a bit uneven and the gold trim paint is not uniform. The item appears to have been used often as the gold paint on the handles is slightly worn. I believe it could be Japanese because the pictures (3) are of what looks like Geisha girls planning a type of Japanese guitar. Each girl is different and each guitar is different. The vase is beautiful and unusual with three handles. Someone put an awful lot of work into this vase.
