Thank you for viewing. This is an item for sale as part of a decluttering effort. ★ Old Noritake, a beautiful vase with a lakeside scene. [Small vase with two handles] in blue. The base is blue lusterware, and a cute landscape painting is hand-painted on it. Size: Top diameter approx. 9.8cm Bottom diameter approx. 7cm Height approx. 14cm Backstamp: NORITAKE, wreath-in M Handpainted Made in Japan (red-brown) Era: Around 1921 (Taisho 10) - 1941 ★ Condition of the item As the item is about 100 years old, there is some age-related deterioration overall. However, the landscape painting on the body, "Tree in the Meadow = Lakeside Trees and Houses," and the color of the upper rim retain their vibrancy. However, there is some gold wear on part of the two handles, and the blue lusterware appears slightly faded depending on the viewing angle. There are stains from watermarks on the inside bottom, which appear to be signs of use (photo 6). Please examine the photos carefully and only purchase if you are satisfied with the condition. Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about minor deterioration as this is an antique item. (These Old Noritake products were collected about 30 years ago when I lived in the United States) I am very sorry, but I cannot accept price negotiations due to time constraints, so please consider the current price. #OldNoritake #Vase #LakesideScene #FlowerBase
