    I like all things oriental and acquired these recently at an auction for not very much! The vivid yellow and the beautiful hand-painted figures really caught my attention. I call them celestial children because they appear to running on clouds! The vases are stoneware with cracked glazing. The decoration looks like Japanese Satsuma but the children appear Chinese! The vases are 10 inches (25.5 cm) tall and have no markings on the base. Can anyone help me with the nationality of these children?!!
