Pair of Imari Porcelain Vases or Lamp Bases

A fine pair of imari vases of baluster shape with twin handles in the form of crouching foo dogs. The bodies decorated with circular panels with birds of prey perched on a fence; the necks decorated with scenes of mount Fuji against a ground of overlapping mon symbols in red and blue heightened with gilding. Ideal for conversion to form a pair of country house lamps.
