A large decorative ceramic vase featuring a finely painted East Asian genre scene, depicting figures engaged in traditional daily activities. The vase has a gently flared rim, rounded body, and a softly graduated glaze that transitions from warm cream tones to blue near the base. The hand-painted imagery shows good detail and character, making this an attractive Oriental-style decorative interior piece. Bottle shown for scale to indicate its substantial size. The mouth of the vase has two cracks - see photos.
