This great Japanese floor vase is thickly casted and very heavy. It has intricate detail depicting a continuous scene all around the vase with Japanese mythology God of Wind Fujin (風神 or 風天) holding a bird feather fan and standing upon his wind's bag as he's about to strike.
The opposite side of the vase depicts great turbulent wind with an eagle hunting other small birds. The stand is matching with the vase with four feet and similar background pattern. I've not able to identify the casted mark.
