About the Item
A set of four Japanese Ceramic Tokkuri Sake storage bottles circa early 20th century (Meiji to Taisho period). The bottles were made in Tamba (Tanba) kilns, located in Tachikui, Hyogo Prefecture. One of the six ancient kilns in Japan, the origin of Tamba ware can be dated to the medieval period and it was known for the pieces used for storage, particularly famous for its sake bottles.
This collection of four bottles all feature dark natural brown glaze with various shades. One shows a little iridescent lust. Three bottles has white inscriptions using a slip trailing technique called itchin, showing either the name or the location of the sake shop on the vessel. One bottle displays only black dripping glaze applied to the mouth and freely flown down along the body. These bottles are heavily potted for practicality. They are full of rustic Mingei (folky) spirit and ooze Wabi-Sabi charm. They range from 10 to 13 inches in height.

Set of Three Provincial Chinese Wine Jugs, circa 1900
Located in Chicago, IL
These early 20th century ceramic jars from China's Shandong province were formed with a bottle-neck shape meant for storing vinegar or rice wine. We suspect these jars were created to store wine for commercial sale, and were likely stoppered with a cork or wax seal. Left unglazed, the jugs are decorated only the irregular, organic smoke patterns created during the firing process. We love the neutral color story told by this set of vessels...
