"Arita Porcelain Vases With Carps Decoration, Meiji Era Japan"

An exceptional and rare pair of Arita porcelain vases decorated with carps leaping from the water near a waterfall.
Richly decorated from foreground to background, combining different techniques to create a highly realistic composition : the outer surface entirely in relief, blue and coral enamels underglaze, fishes outlines and details painted overglaze, gilding, etc.
A tiny firing crack under the base of one of the vases (with no effect), otherwise in perfect condition !
