Vase by Yabu Meizan

Elegantly potted with a gently flared mouth and tapering body, this Satsuma vase is decorated with cascading clusters of wisteria delicately rendered in gilt and enamel against a soft pale-pink crackled glaze. The finely painted blossoms and graceful trailing vines create a refined sense of movement, while the restrained palette enhances the elegance of the composition.Yabu Meizan [1853-1934] is regarded as one of the foremost masters of Meiji-period Satsuma ware. Working in Osaka, he achieved international acclaim for his exceptional precision, sophisticated compositions, and exquisitely detailed overglaze enamels. His works were widely exhibited at international expositions and remain among the most highly regarded examples of Japanese export ceramics of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
