[QUOTE="Francisco G Kempton, post: 4396131, member: 22714"]Yes, I just realised. Art exhibitons or Art fairs and trade fairs and other events, I just had the Idea of these international countries attending an exhibiton in my head. Art exhibitons which i never connected with, were around long before these international exhibitions. Not sure why I got stuck on International exhibitons. There was only ever been 2 international exhibitions in the Uk and the Exhibition of 1851 at the crystal palace was one and the International exhibiton at Kensignton London in 1862 was the other, the Uk has not has one since. Paris has an international Exhibition in 1867 'Exposition Universelle' and it was at this exhibition that Satsuma ware was introduced and to great success. What followed was big business for Japan. If we are going way back to Asian art and potentially the 19th century, then international exhibitions spring to mind because I know Japan made great use of them to commercialise and export their pottery. The light green enamel was one of the earliest colors used in moriage which is on this vase but the technique is very 20th century. I guess the vase has to be older than 1920 based on the OP's Great Grandmother. It is an interesting vase to have such a history, I guess the next stage would be to find out when during the early 20th century did Japan have an exhibition in the Crytal Palace and as this is satsuma, a pottery exhibition and possibly even a Satsuma exhibition. That would help narrow it down. It is not chinese and China would never deal with Japanse ware at their own exhibition so it has to be a japanese exhibition or an import/Export agent. Earliest - Satsuma Moriage 1890 1890- 1913 World War 1 July 1914- November 1918 1919- 1920 1920 Great Grandmother Died. I guess it could be an importer like London Alphonso[/QUOTE]
