Japanese Antique Edo Meiji Wabi-Sabi Tanba Tamba Art Pottery Vase Jar Pot
About the Item
A beautifully shaped, glazed (a lava crater glaze reminiscent of such modern western potters as Beatrice Wood, Glenn Lukens and Otto and Gertrud Natzler), and complexly textured Tamba (Tanba) ware Japanese pottery vase/jar/pot - produced sometime during the late Edo Period (1603-1867) or early Meiji Period (1868-1912). Tamba-yaki ware is a type of Japanese pottery and ceramics produced in Sasayama and Tachikui in Hyogo Prefecture, Japan. Tamba (Tanba) ware is considered one of the Six Ancient Japanese Kilns (along with Echizen ware, Seto ware, Shigaraki ware, Tokaname ware, and Bizen ware). Tanbayaki pottery has been produced for over 800 years and played an essential role in people's daily lives. It recent years, Tambayaki has become highly sought after by collectors as artwork. Its distinguishing feature is its simplicity and absence of decorative flourishes. It is said that Tambayaki's touch imparts a sense of the warmth of the earth and of the people.
The work encompasses the Japanese Wabi-Sabi aesthetic (which is so revered and coveted in Japan) - the appreciation of beauty that is imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete in nature and embraces the principles of asymmetry, roughness, simplicity, economy, austerity, modesty, intimacy, and the appreciation of both natural objects and the forces of nature upon them.
A unique, engaging, one of a kind work. Would be a great addition to any antique/vintage Japanese or Asian pottery collection or make for an eye catching stand alone accent piece in about any setting.
