Satsuma Bowl of Immortals

About the Item

This highly detailed Satsuma bowl is adorned with Buddhist monks and signed “Hododa” on the underside. The columns on the underside read, “Satsuma” and “Hododa.” This represents the highly collectible and prominent maker of Satsuma ware. The pattern can be referred to as “Immortals” or “A Thousand Faces” and is a popular motif among collectors. The bowl features luxurious gold gilding and intricate geometric patterns along with detailed figures. Satsuma ware, a gem of Japan’s Meiji era, has mesmerized collectors worldwide for over a century and a half with its distinctive blend of intricate overglaze enameling and delicate gilding. Originating near Kagoshima Prefecture on Kyushu Island, this exquisite art form was initially crafted by Korean artisans for the local nobility, eventually earning global recognition after its stunning display at the 1867 Exposition Universelle in Paris. Today it continues to be revered and sought after by collectors around the globe, maintaining its allure and prestige.
