butterflies and floral sprays, along with calligraphic marks and stylized motifs. the red enamel and gilt accents are also typical of arita-imari export porcelain. butterflies, maple leaves, and floral sprays are frequent decorative elements symbolizing autumn and renewal in japanese art. \n markings: the inside base shows a series of brush-written japanese kanji and seal marks, likely a painter\u2019s or kiln signature, not a mass-production brand mark. the underside is unmarked except for firing grit and traces of kiln support. \n most likely produced in the arita region (hizen province) in kyushu, japan. intended either for domestic elite use or export to china or the west. the painting quality and slight irregularities suggest hand-decorated kiln output, not a factory line. \n 1850\u20131880, possibly early meiji period, still strongly influenced by late edo aesthetics. \n please make all inquiries before bidding. \n all lots are sold \"as-is\", refer to our t&c.

foliage motifs, set into an openwork gilt-bronze frame with reticulated lattice supports, arched handles, and four splayed foliate feet. the bowl has a wheel-cut starburst base. the gilt-bronze mounts are finely cast and chiseled, typical of french decorative wares of the belle &eacute;poque, circa 1880\u20131900. \n the decoration of gilded grape leaves and clusters is strongly associated with french tableware of the late 19th century, symbolizing abundance and conviviality. \n these pieces were often produced by parisian bronziers and glassmakers (such as baccarat, saint-louis, or attributed workshops) for high-end table garnitures and dessert services. \n the use of gilt-bronze lattice-work supports reflects rococo revival influences, but the naturalistic grapevine motif anticipates the art nouveau taste. \n please make all inquiries before bidding. \n all lots are sold \"as-is\", refer to our t&c. \n helios auctions offers in-house shipping. in case we can not
