499. Large Japanese Urn

A large bronze urn, measuring apprx 42-1/2" H x 15" in diameter at opening. Comprised of three parts, the base stands on three bracket feet, followed by a middle section with an ocean theme with a crab, a fish and a crayfish. The final section is the actual urn with several oriental warrior type figures mounted on stylized oriental horse-type animals. The figures are screwed in through the urn and some have come loose. The neck of the urn has two scrolling handles with budding vines winding across. On the background of the vase are intricate geometric patterned details.
