Lot Details
Description
with a well-proportioned body rising to a rounded shoulder surmounted by a constricted neck, the exterior sensitively and delicately painted in muted tones of cobalt blue with the nine lush autumn-flowering buds and blossoms, evenly spaced with the luscious blooms rendered borne on curling leafy stems issuing from the ground, all between double-line borders encircling the upper shoulder and foot, the base inscribed with a six-character mark within a double circle, veiled overall save for the unglazed footring with a most sensual unctuous glaze, Japanese wood box with an inscription by Kushi Takushi (1898-1973)
