Delicately flared and finely rendered in porcelain, this small vase features a luminous ivory glaze adorned with a gilded rim and a regal, rust-hued transfer print of a long-tailed bird perched among blooming chrysanthemums. The design, evocative of 19th-century East Asian export porcelain, reflects the era’s fascination with natural beauty and exotic motifs. Likely crafted by regional artisans in Japan or China during the mid-20th century, it carries no maker’s mark beyond a simple “101/68” on the base, adding to its enigmatic charm. Measuring approximately 3.5" tall with a 2.75" mouth diameter, this piece offers elegance in miniature—perfect as a bud vase or as part of a refined vignette.
