Description from the seller
This is a Takaoka copper vase featuring a slender "crane-neck" silhouette and the distinctive *han-shido* (mottled purple copper) finish. It boasts an elegant, elongated neck and a gracefully rounded body; the reddish-brown surface is accented with golden patterns that shimmer and shift with the viewing angle—resembling auspicious golden clouds—evoking an air of timeless, refined elegance.
The vase comes with its original wooden box, the lid of which bears a calligraphic inscription by the artist. It is in excellent condition, showing only minor signs of age, with no dents, cracks, or repairs. It is suitable for Japanese *Ikebana* flower arranging, as well as for interior display or art collecting.
