Pair of Antique Gilt Bronze Japanese Vases with immortal figures signed 8.5

  
Gorgeous pair of Antique Japanese Signed Meji Period Gilt Bronze Vases with Silver Rims. These pair of gilded bronze vases each of tapering cylindrical form with steep shoulder and narrow neck with everted lip, decorated with the Shichifukujin (Seven Gods of Good Fortune) in kebori and silver, gold and shakudo hon-zogan, signed to the side "Shinzan". Extra notes: The Japanese Shichifukujin, shichi (seven) fuku (luck) jin (beings), have been a very popular group of deities since the Edo period.

The contrast of the figures on the gold ground works especially well I must say, combined with the slender shape of vases. This item is in the category "Antiques\Asian Antiques\Japan\Vases". The seller is "aking_334" and is located in this country: US.
