This vase is 11 1/2 inches tall and each of the four sides measures 4 inches. I purchased it at a consignment shop. I absolutely love the details and the color. I didn't initially buy it but then I went back and it was marked down because I guess people didn't notice it or weren't interested in it. Score! Any help in identifying it would be greatly appreciated,thanks!
Thank you so much to everyone who responded to my question. It has been very helpful in identifying my vase as well as educational. One more thing it has tiny little cracks all over the vase as well. I just assumed that they belong there because they cover the entire surface of the face but now I'm starting to wonder. You can see them if you zoom in on the pics. Is that supposed to be there or is that considered a flaw in the porcelain?
Many thanks again. Where would I go to get a value or appraisal on an item like this. I have no idea whatsoever of what it's really worth. Any recources would be greatly appreciated.
Supposed to be there--I think it may be Satsuma, but usually on a beige ground. Take a look over at "Google" for "Satsuma Vase".. I used to have Satsuma buttons with beautiful designs on them ( c 1900_) I collect antique buttons too. Lois
this is wierd and confusing stuff , because it is inconsistent
first of all i think its a fuku mark , which is hapiness or good fortune good fukus do good money , so every is happy and inviting for the Glenfiddish
but you got them from edo period to Showa period and on
the sizing and the type of beehive is incosistent and the design is inconstanf , so this be mejji or taisho period, this is or late showa period or heisei period still cute

This is Japanese, i'm pretty sure. Fairly modern Kutani, i think.
it is an kutani but there are different releases of the fuku , depends on the presence of the Tomobako as reference, i believe but i am not sure the tomobako nowadays are often Kutani Seiko ZO related , but this is an educated guess , because i am not an Japanese expert
i could be right i see the tomobake concerning the Japanese word Kabin , which means something like flower conveyor , but i suck in Japanese
