[QUOTE="15Stiftgasse, post: 3591012, member: 12382"]Hello! Although it's not something I would normally collect, I have the opportunity to purchase a Japanese Satsuma-type vase. My experience of such items is very limited, and , naturally, I don't want to end up making an expensive mistake. I would very much appreciate any help I can get from you guys. I am aware that Satsuma ceramic wares are fairly common and usually relatively inexpensive. This particular vase appears (in my view, anyway) to be not the usual day-to-day type of Satsuma that you normally see, but then again, it's not cheap at €260 ! It was previously used as a lamp - but with a top-mounted fitment ie not drilled, as is often the case. It stands about 48cm high and is (supposedly) in good condition. I would be very grateful to hear the opinions of any experts out there, especially if anyone is able to comment on the scene depicted and also it's quality/desirability. Many thanks to you all !!!!!!
