拍品描述
MIYAO: A RARE BRONZE VASE DEPICTING HERONS IN A POND

By the Miyao company of Yokohama, signed Miyao
Japan, Meiji period (1868-1912)

The pear-shaped body supported on a short waisted foot and rising to a slender neck with a flared mouth, the body superbly cast in relief with a group of five herons with long beaks and eyes picked out in gold standing in a shallow pond, the water rendered with subtle indentation to lend movement, and the reeds engraved in relief. The bronze is patinated to a lustrous finish. Signed to the base with a seal MIYAO.

HEIGHT 26.4 cm
WEIGHT 1,063.1 g

Condition: Very good condition with some wear and minor casting irregularities.

Founded by Miyao Eisuke, the Miyao Company of Yokohama (later based in Nihonbashi-ku, Tokyo, after ca. 1890) specialized in the manufacture of bronze sculptures, embellished with gold and silver as well as patinated copper alloys, that represent generic samurai warriors as well as more precisely identifiable characters from Japanese myth and legend. In addition, the company also made a smaller number of pieces in other formats such as incense burners, vases, and chargers.

Auction comparison:
Vases by the Miyao company are rare. Compare a related large bronze vase depicting cranes, signed Miyao, dated 19th century, 42.5 cm high, at Christie’s, 20 June 2001, London, lot 85 (sold for GBP 24,675).
