Sold out
£800.00 £625.00

A charming and beautiful pair of Meiji period Japanese cloisonne vases.

 

The vases are almost mirror images of sparrows but both are slightly different with some sparrows either squabbling or pecking and grooming each other.

 

Both signed by the Nagoya based artist Sato Rinemon (Satouri) I have removed what looks like a retailers sticker from one vase to reveal the signature underneath.

 

A rare pair, both with no cracks, chips or restorations. Both stand just over 6" tall.
