About the Item

Rare Satsuma porcelain set, consisting of a very small teapot with animated decoration and a tripod incense pot, with animated decoration on the outside. The pot has an openwork lid with floral decoration, and a flower-shaped handle. Label on the underside of the incense pot: Kinkozan Kyoto. Documentation: The Kinkōzan were a famous family of Kyoto potters who made ceramics used in a temple linked to the imperial family in the Edo period. However, with the upheavals of the late Edo period and the subsequent reforms of the Meiji government, the potters lost their traditional patrons and had to develop new markets. It was precisely at this time that a visit from a certain Westerner is said to have prompted them to start trading abroad. By 1870, they had perfected the Kyō Satsuma glazing technique, and in 1872 began exporting on a large scale. The Kinkōzan continued to expand their business throughout the Meiji period, to the point where Kyō Satuma production surpassed the original Satsuma made in Kagoshima. Numerous collections of Kyoto Satsuma in Europe and the United States testify to Kyō Satsuma's success on the export market.
