A typically well made vase from Kurata, made from a lovely teal glass with added gold and silver accents, and then given a satin finish.
The shape and metal inclusions are SO Japanese. Colour too I think!

Very Japanese, really.At first sight I thought :cherry blossom at the sky background,especially in the first photo.

What a lovely vision Ivonne! Thanks.
Thanks surfdub, you are one that seems to like my Japanese glass and I appreciate it!
I think this colour and style would fit well with your collection vintagelamp.
Smooch Sean.
This is a sneaky one Inky.....
Thanks everyone! Karen
I'll add swirling autumn leaves to Ivonne's cherry blossom comment :) Another beauty Karen !
More images created - thanks Mike.
that is divine
So assist me because I think Id like to get some of these that you show us.
Did Mikasa buy Kurata, similar to what they did with Walther and Sohne? Or was it alwas a Mikasa style?
This blue one is just gorgeous and looks lovely with the plinth or the word I cant find, the stand. oh my words are lost today..
but it shows it beautifully ....
Thanks Anne..hope you are pulling up OK today.
Kurata actually made (as far as I know) all of the glass for Mikasa up until Mikasa bought their interest in Walther. I think that was around late 90s? - not sure of the date. Kurata made mainly pressed and cut glass for Mikasa with some production blown work also. In it's own name Kurata (more correctly Joetsu Glass) got a bit more arty and free. I do have some gorgeous Kurata for Mikasa pieces but the Kurata studio work like this is more appealing to me.
teal is my favorite color. the piece speaks for its self.
Cheers Reed. Thanks!
Wait, in the first picture it looks blue and white, in the second picture white and gold -- oh no, oh no no no no no not again not here!!!
j/k lol Lovely vase! But I do prefer the first picture's colors. :)
The first photo is true to colour thanks Katherine!
The second photo is with flash....it does look dark with sparkles.
You know I only did it like that to get to you......ah a a. Lol!
