A beautifully crafted Japanese studio pottery vase of substantial globular form, featuring delicate applied plum blossom decoration and a richly varied glaze. Probably dating from the late 20th century, this impressive stoneware vase combines traditional Japanese ceramic craftsmanship with an expressive decorative finish.
