a clear photo of the base will help a lot.
Looks like Koi Fish ( Carp) so is it marked Japan or Chinese symbol on bottom.
Its a beauty !! What size is it ??
Thanks for replies!
I did add pic of bottom.. I can't identify any name .
It is LARGE vase..
15" x 10" at widest spread.
Again, THANKS.
If you want clue, I would like to give you. The shape is called 3 fish Zun from Tang dynasty in China. There is one on display in Taipei National Palace museum.
