Sentou – 日本复古青铜釉陶瓷花瓶，金色点缀，附原装盒 - 陶瓷 - Sentou/千陶 - 日本 - Shōwa period (1926-1989)

Description

An elegant vintage Japanese ceramic vase by Sentou (千陶), presented with its original signed wooden storage box (tomobako).

This refined work features a sophisticated bronze glaze (Seidoyu / 青銅釉) with a soft matte texture that evokes the rich patina of aged bronze. The clean geometric silhouette is enhanced by a carefully applied gold accent, creating a striking yet understated focal point. The contrast between the tranquil bronze-green glaze and the warm gold decoration gives the piece a distinctly modern Japanese aesthetic.

The vase demonstrates excellent craftsmanship, combining minimalist form with subtle artistic expression. Its timeless design makes it suitable both as an ikebana flower vase and as a sculptural decorative object for contemporary interiors.

The underside bears the impressed mark of the artist, and the vase is accompanied by its original signed wooden storage box.
