Re: Is This A Satsuma Vase?

it is interesting that you find a chinese connection with the vase. my instinct was to give it japanese origins but i cannot articulate why.

the qianjiang lead was very informative yet i have not found any examples justifying that categorization. in some ways the vase fits the description of that genre but seems too far off the mark and of later origin. i love the soft tones / watercolor feel of the qianjiang and this vase has it in some ways but not in the way of the documented pieces i have seen....it is the matte surface which has thrown me....

in any event it is very nice vase.
