Vase, gift, repossession Krakow. Angular vase one of a pair with rounded edges, on a low round foot and with a short neck slightly flaring at the spout. The bottom of the foot and the edge of the spout are framed in silver-plated copper. Against a uniform dark garnet background with a purple hue, a decoratively yet faithfully depicted tall poppy plant grows from the base to the neck. Stems with alternating elongated, jagged leaves in pale grayish green support large, full corollas of white and light purple flowers with dense yellow stamens and a green pistil; the motif is executed using the yusen technique, with thin silver wires precisely structuring the delicate leaves and petals. The plant stems are accentuated with chocolate brown enamel. The flowers are presented slightly differently in each vase, enhancing naturalness. Around the foot and neck is a border of small geometric semicircle and rhombus motifs in white and two shades of blue, also in yusen technique. Ca. 1900 Meiji period, 1868–1912, Nagoya, Japan. Vessel; height 18.4 cm, width 7.5 cm, depth 7 cm., A tall, slender vase with a glossy deep purple surface stands upright against a neutral gray background; it has a narrow neck with a rounded rim and a slightly flared foot, both edged in a muted gold tone, and a decorative band of blue and teal near the rim and foot. On one side of the vase is a floral motif featuring a large chrysanthemum-like flower with bright yellow petals and a small turquoise center, accompanied by pale silvery-green leaves and feathery foliage extending downward. The vase casts a subtle reflection on the smooth surface beneath it.
