About the Item

An exquisitely decorated and wonderfully executed ceramic Mingei glazed plate/ low bowl by Japanese National Treasure and Mashiko pottery master Tatsuzo Shimaoka. This work displays his famous Jomon Zogan rope inlay design, hand-painted decoration, and has his impressed "Ta" signature on the base. Shimaoka, who started as an apprentice to famed Japanese potter Shoji Hamada in 1946 before opening his pottery studio, has exhibited worldwide including in North America, Asia, and Europe. In 1996 he was bestowed the title of Japanese Living Treasure by the Japanese government. In 1999 he was awarded The Order of the Rising Sun. His work can be found in many international museums and collections including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London among others. Would be sure to stand out in any Japanese art or pottery collection or as a stand-alone accent piece in about any setting. It is truly a very unique and special work. Dimensions: 1.5" high, 9.6" diameter.

Fine Japanese Ceramic Plate by Kinkozan for Yamanaka & Co.
By Kinkozan
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 maple tree in the midst of foliage color-changing in autumn. The poetic composition is stylized but also realistic, with a literati painter's quality, and was advantageously enhanced by the enamel colorings in incredible details. The maple tree is one of the favored motifs by the fine satsuma potters such as Yabu Meizan as it demonstrates the painter's skill. 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. 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...
