A refined Meiji-era cloisonné vase, likely dating to the late 19th century and executed in the celebrated style of Ando Jubei, one of Japan’s foremost cloisonné masters. The elegant baluster form is set against a pure white enamel ground, its surface delicately adorned with a continuous scene of koi fish swimming amidst blooming lotuses and floating lily pads. The use of shaded enamel and fine silver wirework reveals the hand of a master enameller, capturing both movement and serenity with painterly precision. Cloisonné of this caliber was frequently presented at international expositions and remains a cornerstone of Japanese decorative art collecting. This example reflects both the technical sophistication and poetic sensibility that defined the golden age of Japanese cloisonné.
