Signed Japanese Imariware Vase

This is a Japanese Imariware vase, decorated with cherry blossoms, chrysanthemums, and pastoral scenes around the throat. The enamelwork is vibrant, and the gilded mouth is a nice accent. It is signed and reads "Imari Ware Japan". The only flaw noted is a very tiny nick in the gold at the mouth. This is a beautiful display piece, or could be used as a working vase.
