This flower vase, crafted by the renowned Kutani ware master, Seiko, features a flowing olive-shaped form. The white glaze on the base is warm and clean, while the rim is decorated with a touch of bluish-gray glaze. One side of the vase is hand-painted with camellias; the red blossoms are in full bloom, and the leaves are rendered in green and gold, the brushstrokes free and lively, the gold leaf adding an elegant and luxurious sheen – a typical Kutani gold-painting style. The base bears a red inscription reading "Kutani Seiko," and it comes with its original paulownia wood box, inscribed with "Flower Vase" in ink. The maker's mark and seal are complete. The glaze is intact, without any cracks or chips, making it suitable for display in tea rooms or entryways, combining collectability and practicality. Dimensions: Height approximately 25 cm, mouth diameter approximately 6 cm, body diameter approximately 11 cm.
