IT SEEMS HE WAS VERY PROUD OF HIS WORK PLEASE SEE PHOTO’S. THE IMMENSE GILDING AND COLOURING OF THE VASE HAS CREATED A MASTERPIECE THERE HAS BEEN SO MUCH WORK GONE INTO MAKING THIS INCREDIBLE VASE THE COST OF THE GOLD ITSELF MUST HAVE BEEN A FORTUNE, THE PAINTING OF ROSES AND SUMMER FOWER’S IS SOME OF THE FINEST WORK EVER SEEN AND THE MODELLING IS EXCEPTIONAL. I CAN HONESTLY SAY THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST INCREDIBLE PIECES OF PORCELAIN I HAVE EVER OWNED. THE VASE DATES TO c1901. CONDITION IS SUPERB WITH NO CHIPS, CRACKS OR RESTORATION, AND NO CRAZING, THE GILDING LOOKS AS FRESH AS THE DAY IT LEFT THE FACTORY WITH NOT EVEN THE SLIGHTEST WEAR, A REALLY INCREDIBLE PIECE FOR THE DISCERNING COLLECTOR.
