"Arita"
Pair of Japanese porcelain vases Arita Imari decoration from the 19th century.They rest on a symmetrical rocaille base in gilded bronze with insect decoration, they are topped with an openwork gilded bronze neck in incense burner. This association of porcelain and bronze responds to the Western taste for luxury and ornamentation blending with their ideology of the Far East. The contrast between Far Eastern porcelain and European golden richness embodies a fascinating association of two artistic traditions. A vase to restore.
