And the last picture isn't clear enough. If you could take one more. If your loading here resize your photos. Crop and resize.

If the size of the pic is too big it will not load !!  Take a pic of the front of the vase so we can see the pattern !!

I think it's called Satsuma. Japanese. Let's make sure I'm right first.

No, satsuma is a region where the pottery is made !! They have been making pottery for many years !! Much of it is sold to other companies who do the decoration/painting !! I think its still being imported !! If I remember correctly its a tin glazed pottery much like majolica !!  This looks like maybe 1960 or after !!  If I had to put a value on this one,,around $20. !!  Prices are not too good for oriental style right now,, except for the very old ones and even they are down a bit !!
