Made in Japan, this chokin porcelain vase is gilded with 24-karat gold. The delicate gold plate features two geisha wearing traditional kimonos and carrying sun parasols, walking beside a bridge. A Japanese signature has been etched into the bottom of the plate by the maker.

Historically, chokin art was gifted to honour 12th-century samurai. Chokin artists decorated samurai artillery with ornate gold or silver designs. Today, vintage chokin is popular with collectors across the East and West.

Minor chips in the gold. Complete with original labels, reading '24KT Gold', 'Japan', and 'Patent Pending No. 62 081885 Colored-Chokin'.
