About the Item
A pair of Satsuma ceramic plates made by Kinkozan studio circa 1880-1900s during the late Meiji Period. Each dish features miniature enamel decoration of two lively festival scenes within a cobalt blue border laced with gold scrolls ornamentation. The parades on each plate showcase two streams of characters going in opposite direction. Each individual, of different gender and age, is realistically painted with unique outfit, face, coiffure and accoutrement they may hold in their hands or carried on their shoulder. There are women in kimono, children holding banners, peasants carrying buckets (perhaps shell games) and actors in theatrical outfit and masks. The harmonious composition provides a snapshot of the life and people in Edo-Meiji time, no different than a photograph in that regards. Under the plate, it was glazed in cobalt blue. Each base is impressed with a four-character seal sign "Kinkozan Tsukuru". The glaze displays an overall even fine crackle. The workmanship is superb and can be catalogized as "miniature art" characterized by the painstaking details, often found in the workshop of Yabu Meizan and Seikozan.
The Kinkozan family established their pottery business first in 1645 and by the end of 19th century, it had become the largest studio producer of Satsuma ware. By the 1850s, Kinkozan Sobei (Kinkozan IV; 1824-84) started to export the wares to the west, particularly to America, together with the Kyoto manufacturer Taizan VIII. This continued and expanded under the leadership of Kinkozan V (1868-1927) until his death in 1927 when the studio closed. Although due to the large output from the studio and target of the markets, the quality varied considerably, Kinkozan did produce some of the best Satsuma pieces from Meiji period.

Located in Atlanta, GA
A fine Japanese ceramic satsuma plate made by Kinkozan and retailed by Yamanaka & Co. circa 1900-20s (late Meiji to early Tasho Period). The cream-color glazed plate features a very fine decoration of a persimmon tree bearing fruits. The composition is poetic, stylized but also realistic, with a literati painter's quality, and was advantageously enhanced by the enamel colorings in incredible details. The mastership of the medium came through the piece. It is signed on the base in gilt kanji seal (Made by Kinkozan) and branded Yamanaka & Co in English. The plate was likely commissioned by the company from Kinkozan for its various galleries in US and Europe.
