From our Japanese collection, we are delighted to offer this Japanese Meiji period Satsuma Bowl by Kinkozan. The earthenware bowl with pinched rim extensively decorated on both the exterior and interior. The bowl with a cobalt blue base glaze decorated to the borders with gilt shippo-tsunagi (linked-cash) with scattered medallion roundells. Around the exterior two elongated scenes are featured, one with boys playing games in a courtyard with the other featuring seated scholars in full dress both with raised enamel decoration. The interior features a central scene with Samurai warriors in training fully armoured with swords in a courtyard with landscapes scenes to the background. The central scene bordered by further stylised shippo-tsunagi type decoration with a greek key rim border. The bowl signed to the base Kinkozan dating to the Meiji Period (1868-1912) circa 1900.
