Tree and Gold Cloud Japanese Flower Vase

This Kutani porcelain vase features gold and silver trees standing against a backdrop of softly misted mountain ranges. The gentle gradation over the muted green surface recalls traditional Japanese scene painting, where drifting clouds and layered tones create a sense of atmospheric depth.

The surface also has two distinct textures: the trees in the foreground have a smooth, glossy finish, while the blurred background is matte and slightly grainy to the touch. This contrast enhances the sense of distance and gives the landscape a quiet, contemplative mood.

Measuring 12 cm (4.7 in) in diameter and 13 cm (5.1 in) in height, it is a versatile size for display.

Its refined design brings a graceful presence to any interior. Place it on its own as an accent piece, or use it to hold flowers or greenery to suit the season.
