Vintage Porcelain Satsuma‎ Japan Hain Painted Small Vase, Blue

This is a beautiful Vintage Porcelain Satsuma Japan Hand Painted Small Vase with a striking blue hue. Likely dating from the Meiji period (1868-1912) or early 20th century, it showcases the intricate artistry typical of Satsuma ware. The hand-painted details, often featuring delicate figures, landscapes, or floral motifs, are rendered with precision, possibly with raised "moriage" enamel work and gold gilding for added texture and luxury. Its small size makes it a perfect accent piece for any collection, adding a touch of Japanese elegance to your decor. Note that genuine Satsuma has a finely crackled glaze and is hand-painted with Japanese imagery, often including the Shimazu crest.
