Triple gourd vase painted in Japanese style with large flower sprays c. 1700 - 1724

This triple gourd vase, dating back to the early 18th century, is a fine example of Japanese-style Imari porcelain. The vase, crafted by an anonymous artist, showcases a vibrant palette of blue, red, and gold on a white background. The large floral sprays, reminiscent of traditional Japanese motifs, are a hallmark of this style and add a touch of elegance to the piece. The vase is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, offering visitors a glimpse into the artistry of the Imari period.
