Vase, Hiratsuka, Mohei 1836-? maker. A slender ovoid, double-walled bottle on a very low ring foot with a narrow neck flaring at the spout. The outer wall is openwork and composed of densely arranged, colorfully enamaled cloisonné wisteria flowers and leaves, filling the entire surface of the vessel's body. The flowers are rendered naturalistically with clusters in shades of lilac and blue using multiple enamel tones; the leaves employ several green tones. In the lower part of the body, a strip of silver left around the foot is engraved with a stylized wave motif. The arms of the vessel are solid silver, with a strip of stylized clouds running above the floral ornament in a manner characteristic of Far Eastern art. The neck is enclosed by a rosette with petals decorated with a multicolored miniature stylized plant ornament featuring chrysanthemum half-rosettes, leafy forms, and volutes. Mark on the bottom: oval convex plaque with the artist's name: Hiratsuka. Ca. 1880–1890 Meiji Period, 1868–1912, Japan. Vessel. Height 19.1 cm; diameter 7.2 cm., A tall, narrow vase with a rounded shoulder and flared mouth sits against a neutral gray background; the vase has a metallic dark silver surface accented with an intricate raised floral pattern showing a group of clustered flowers in shades of purple and pale blue surrounded by green leaves, with darker silver scrolling details between the floral areas and a decorative petal-like collar beneath the mouth that includes small areas of color; the base shows a darker silver band and the vase casts a subtle reflection on the surface below.
