Vase
Not on view
The jar among waves and birds is an unusual composition: its design mimics dripping glaze or overflowing liquid, and the tiny birds and fretwork pattern around the mouth are depicted in fine silver inlay. More than fifty pieces of Japanese metalwork are in the Moore collection, almost all made in the nineteenth century and most intended for the Western market.
