Monumental Imari porcelain vase with gilt bronze mounts
Monumental Imari porcelain vase with gilded bronze mounts.
The vase has a slender and monumental shape: a wide body, an elongated neck, and a flared mouth. The gilded bronze mount, probably European, is coeval or slightly later. It features pierced volutes, elevated handles, and a wavy foot, enhancing the overall theatrical effect and referencing the Rocaille repertoire of Louis XV taste.
The porcelain decoration displays the typical characteristics of the Imari palette - blue, iron red, and gold with ornamental reserves, floral motifs, and bird figures, elements that confirm its eminently decorative and prestigious purpose.
