Description
- Cloisonne
de forme quadrangulaire, la panse légèrement renflée se rétrécissant en un long col droit, chaque face à décor de fleurs des quatre saisons sur fond turquoise
Condition
The vase is in overall good condition. There are small areas of loss to the cloisonne around the foot, along the corners and below the rim, some of which were filled in in the past. There is wear to the gilding and the base sheet metal plate may have been added later and is inserted. The colours are softer than the catalogue illustration suggests.
