Mini Satsuma Moriage Vase | Japanese Enameled Bud Vase | Hand Painted TT Made in Japan | Vintage Asian Decor

According to Wikipedia, Moriage is a slip decoration of raised enamels. It occurs on Satsuma wares as early as circa 1890 but tends to be more carefully applied on early pieces. Moriage also seems to be limited to pieces made outside of the Satsuma domain while being typical for Kyoto Satsuma ware.

This bud vase is a lovely example of moriage. It features a women in a blue, gold and teal kimono. The base color is a deep brick red with a bright lovely green along the top.
