※The lighter is for comparison. I don't smoke. The piece doesn't smell or smudge. Rest assured. Extra-Large Modern Gold Art Deco Vase This piece features a striking gold color and a regular pattern. The modern, Art Deco feel is striking. The size is particularly noteworthy. Ceramics this large are difficult to create because they are prone to breaking during the firing process. The regular, modern, Art Deco pattern is set against the gold. A closer look reveals irregularities in the firing of the glaze. The finish is a blend of brown and black. The regular pattern lends expression. This is a way of creating expression that is reminiscent of the Japanese aesthetic of wabi-sabi. The condition is excellent, with no breaks or cracks. It comes with a hand-signed Tomobako. As mentioned above, vases this large are rare due to the difficulty of creating them. Own this extremely rare piece of Japanese art.
