Description: Beautiful vintage signed celadon art pottery vase featuring a pale jade/seafoam-green glaze, extensive crackle finish, and graceful flying crane decoration. This unusual vase has a traditional Meiping-inspired form, with a rounded upper body tapering inward toward the lower portion and ending in a narrow foot. The short neck is finished with a thick, gently flared rounded rim. The body is decorated with delicate cranes in flight, stylized cloud/floral elements, and finely executed white decorative bands around the shoulder and base. The pale blue-green celadon glaze has an attractive high-gloss surface over a pronounced network of crackling that gives the vase considerable depth and texture. The underside bears a two-character handwritten artist/workshop mark that appears to read 花泉 (Kasen).

The glaze, crane imagery, decorative technique, and form are reminiscent of traditional Korean Goryeo-style celadon and later celadon revival pottery.
