About the Item

19th century Japanese Meiji period carved stone Meiping style urn or bud vase. The lovely pale yellow stone varying in shades from mustard to umber with some black striations is just exquisite. As is the Meiping form, a full bulbous body topped by a delicate, slightly raised neck. Beautifully carved and polished, this piece has a presence and true personality belying it's size. Currently, one of my favorite objects. Check out the video to get a real feel of the depth and subtle variations of the surface. 6.5 inches high 4 diameter A meiping is a type of vase in Asian ceramics. It is traditionally used to display branches of plum blossoms. The meiping was first made of stoneware during the Tang dynasty. It was originally used as a wine vessel, but since the Song dynasty it also became popular as a plum vase and got its name "meiping".
