description

Summary

Although the rim of one of these vases is quite misshapen, both were nevertheless decorated and delivered. That the factory management deemed the deformation acceptable speaks volumes about the difficulty of producing vases of this size. The floral and bird decorations are derived from Japanese Kakiemon porcelain.
