This is a large Japanese porcelain vase produced in the 20th century, executed in the Iro-Nabeshima style. The entire surface is covered in a deep iron-red ground using the “Aka-dami” technique, giving the piece a strong presence and substantial decorative impact. Against this rich red background, large white peonies and dark cobalt-blue leaves are boldly arranged, with delicate gold detailing carefully applied to the leaf veins. The peony is an auspicious motif symbolizing wealth, prosperity, and nobility. Through the vivid contrast of red, blue, white, and gold, this work creates a striking visual impact. With a balanced large scale of 21.5 cm in height and 21.5 cm in diameter, the rounded and stable form presents a harmonious composition from every angle. It is a highly decorative piece that functions as a focal point in any space. The base bears the signature “Shuho” (秀峰).
