Japanese (?) vase

[zilverik]

Hi,

This is a nice vase I bought at auction long ago from a known collection. Good quality; cut card technique (the flowers are casted and then soldered on the body); heavy: 318 gramms; high 14 cm. Could also be Chinese. I don't know. Around 1900 (Meiji?) I guess.
Anyone knows the country and/or master?

Regards,

Hi Dognose and Oel,

Thank you very much. I am sorry that I didn't find it myself. I could have because there where items from Wang Hing before on the forum. My mistake was that I had the idea that it was probably Japanese from the Meiji period. The florals on the vase look very much like from that period in Japan.

Regards,
