AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Superb fine-porcelain collectible vase, made in Japan in 1981 for Franklin Porcelain, after a design by Basil Ede (1931–2016), the famous British animal painter specializing in birds.
This elegant piece features beautiful stilts moving among aquatic vegetation, consisting of reeds, foliage and delicate yellow flowers.
The finesse of the plumage, the subtle nuances and the gilded borders testify to a remarkable decorative workmanship.
Limited edition, bearing under its base the Franklin Porcelain mark, the title of the work, Basil Ede's reproduced signature and the mention Japan.
Beautiful overall presentation. Some possible signs of age to be appreciated in the many detailed photographs.
Careful shipping, professional packaging and tracked shipping.
