Product Details

This magnificent vintage Japanese porcelain teapot is a unique and collectible piece that perfectly blends traditional romantic style with sculptural detail. The ornate, molded white porcelain body is adorned with a beautiful, intricate pink 'Moss Rose' floral cluster. Elegant, thin gold lines trail gracefully up the ornate spout and highlight the embossed scrollwork that frames the handle, base, and rims, adding substantial luxury. The defining feature of this high-gloss porcelain piece is its matching domed lid, which is topped with a rare, highly stylized whale tail (or dolphin. fluke) finial heavily accented in gold gilding. Stamped "Japan" on the base, this teapot from the mid-century export era is in excellent vintage condition with exceptional glaze luster, vibrant floral enameling, and no chips, cracks, or heavy gold wear. It is a spectacular and uncommon addition to any vintage porcelain collection.
