Rare Vintage 1930s Tokanabe Ware Full Moon Ikebana Vessel ✨ Rare and highly collectible piece of Japanese Art Deco pottery. Crafted during the 1920s–1930s export era, this Tokanabe Ware vessel features a dramatic, sculptural full-moon or donut silhouette. It showcases the signature heavily-textured, stippled matte black cratered background that defines this celebrated style. DESIGN & MORIAGE DETAILS: The face of the vessel features striking, hand-painted raised moriage enamel artwork depicting a powerful Japanese Imperial Dragon winding across the frame, chasing abstract flaming pearls of wisdom. The enamel work features brilliant shades of burnt orange, deep red, cream, and brilliant gold accents highlighting the dragon's scales. The dragon features highly detailed moriage paint application with raised relief outlining. The fine gold-tone highlights along the scales, fins, and traditional whiskers are beautifully preserved, showcasing remarkable precision and minimal handling rub for its near century-old age.
