    Description

    Antique Imperial Nippon Handled Vase Hand Painted Countryside Sunset Landscape
    The Nippon era began in 1891 when the Japanese porcelain was clearly marked "Nippon" due to the McKinley Tariff Act. This act required that all porcelain be marked with the country of origin. ("Nippon" literally translates to "Japan".) This porcelain was made specifically to be exported to the west with designs and patterns that suited American's tastes. At that time, Japan had a thriving porcelain industry using methods used in Europe and the United States.
    This vase is in very nice vintage condition with no chips or cracks or crazing.  The gold is missing in two of the floral petals on the neck.  It measures 9 1/2" tall and approximately 6 1/2" wide.
