The front of the vase, images three and one, depicts leaves and two flying creatures, moths/butterflies/I know not what! The moths and leaves are enameled but the shadows are painted. The design goes around almost all of the vase. The workmanship is very good and the vase is pristine. There is however sufficient wear around the rim of the base to leave no doubt that this old.
I've had it quite a while but have no definite idea of its maker. Any ideas at all would be welcome.

Love this ! a favorite color and subject matter :-)
Thank you, Malkey, I suspect a little 'artist's licence' with the critters!
Thanks, Manikin, I'd have to agree and the colour and design look well together, I think :)
To those who stopped and 'loved' the vase a big THANK YOU!
My favourite colour too - it's a beautiful vase.
