This beautiful piece features vibrant hand-painted scenes of Japanese landscapes and figures, with precise gold gilt and raised white glaze decoration on a solid, elegant body. This is a masterpiece included in catalogs. The condition is miraculously good, with fine raised decorations and gold accents throughout, making it a very luxurious and valuable item.

The techniques, such as gold gilding, were recognized worldwide, and this piece, depicting unique Japanese scenery, shows the pride of the craftsmen of the time.
