The vase is approximately 5 the tall. it is located somewhere else so I don't have the exact measurements. I was wondering if anyone knew where it might be from, the style, and the approximate date it was created. Thanks!
One of the Asian experts may drop a comment on this thread, I think it would be helpful if you were to post more photos, including of the base.
Thanks! I agree that would be extremely helpful. I only have one photo at this time. The item is at another location. Maybe someone might recognize the general style from the picture.
Even though it
s deep dark colours I still love it
It looks Japanese to my eye and looks like a very large piece of Satsuma.
Thank you! I agree based on looking up Satsuma. Does it look like Meiji period? Thanks !
Is the story on your Urn a "war at sea" scenario? I agree with Zowie but still love the intricacy and awesomeness (?) of the Urn. :)
Thanks everyone! Another family member has this so I forget what is on the other side. I know it has many warriors. I will have to take some better pictures when I can see it again.
Thanks LuluX for the information I have always loved Asian Art or there of since I was a kid & that was a long time ago but have never learnt anything it's the style for me but the learning can count a lot.
By looking the door Jam beside, this look like enourmous Vase, gorgeous...;-)

Kyoto Satsuma 1875-1900 time frame Meiji. Nice large one would be a lot taller 6 ft range I think. Looks like the top was busted off at some point in its life shape isn't right should have a neck that goes up then flares out.
