Indonesian Large Terracotta Water Jar, Indonesia late 19th century
Located in Utrecht, NL
As a country with rich cultural heritage, handicrafts produced in Indonesia also display a high level of diversity. Each province, even each production centre has its own speciality and uniqueness. Following the nation’s motto of “Unity in Diversity” (“Bhinneka Tunggal Ika”), the diversity of Indonesian handicrafts is united by a single underlying characteristic: uniquely beautiful items that epitomize the beauty of nature.
This water jar possesses an elemental, organic power that comes from its rich historical origin, earthly palette and materials. Pottery made of earth and water elements becomes extraordinary because it has passed through various times, and carries a layer of each phase of its life. The shape and decorative elements of this jar is distinctively Indonesian, with a handcrafted asymmetric shape, terracotta colour and subtle rings running around the body.

Japanese Fukagawa Meiji Period Porcelain Vase, circa 1880
Located in Takarazuka, JP
Exceptional Japanese tall Fukagawa Meiji period Imari porcelain vase in iron-red, cobalt blue and green on a stunningly shaped porcelain body. Fukagawa Eizaemon started the Koransha (Scented Orchid) company in 1875 and after his death in 1889, his oldest son, Yotaro succeeded him. In 1894 his 2nd son Chuji Fukagawa started the Fukagawa Seiji Company (1894 to 1935) with the mount Fuji and stream mark. Fukagawa Seiji company produced exquisite porcelain pieces for export to Europe and America that were highly regarded, cherished and celebrated.
The Fukagawa-sei or made-by-Fukagawa mark appears at the bottom of the vase.
This extraordinary vase with two decorative handles showcases a dramatic scene of bold spring flowers decorating the center part of the vase on one side and plum blossoms and birds on the other side, with a wide band in deep red with flora pattern and two kiku-mon or chrysanthemum crests in cobalt blue. A band in cobalt blue with two chrysanthemum crests appear at the center of the band. This mesmerizing scene attracts the viewer to approach and enjoy the details of this magnificent piece.

Antique, New and Vintage Asian Ceramics
With their rich and diverse history, antique, new and vintage Asian ceramics offer colorful and sophisticated ways to add flair to any space.
Japanese pottery dates back at least 13,000 years to the Jōmon period. Pieces from the Late Jōmon era display a rope-cord pattern encircling a pot or jug. During the Muromachi period, potters created simple bowls and utensils frequently used in tea ceremonies and were made as both functional and aesthetic objects.
Ceramics made during Japan’s Meiji period, from 1868 to 1912, reflected an explosion of artistic expression propelled by new access to international trade. Details became more intricate and refined, and colors were enhanced with new glazing practices.
Chinese porcelain, meanwhile, is often identified by its shape. Each reign and dynasty had specific shapes and styles that were encouraged by the imperial ruler. During the Song dynasty, for instance, there were four dominant types of ceramic vase shapes: plum-shaped, pear-shaped, cong-shaped (tall and square) and double-gourd.
Chinese ceramics that were made during the Qing dynasty were demonstrative of an expanded artistic expression, with more delicate shapes and a focus on intricate detailing. The shapes of ceramics from this era are thinner, taller and have subtle features like a gentle flare, such as on the mallet-shaped vase.
Later, the 17th- and 18th-century interior design trend of chinoiserie brought Asian paintings and screens, textiles and other art and furniture from the continent into many European homes.
Explore an extensive range of antique, new and vintage Asian ceramics on 1stDibs to find the perfect piece for your home.
