About the Item

Nice & Beautiful Arita Japanese Porcelain Vase, beaker shape. Landscape scene with figures. Thanks to Pater Gratia Oriental Art Beaker vase Japan 1680-1700 A large cylindrical trumpet-shaped beaker vase on footring with a flaring mouth and sides spreading towards the inset takefushi-shaped foot. Decorated in underglaze blue with two groups of flowering plants one with flowering peony the other with flowering prunus both groups are devided by grasses. Round the foot two concentric bands. The beaker form comes from Chinese Transitional ware but the angle cut-in of the sides above the foot became an Arita hallmark. (Ayers, Impey & Mallet 1990, p.103, cat. 48) For identically shaped beaker vases, decorated in underglaze blue, please see: Porcelain for Palaces. The Fashion for Japan in Europe 1650-1750, (J. Ayers, O. Impey & J.V.G. Mallet, Oriental Ceramic Society & The British Museum, London 1990), p.103, cat. 48. Ko-Imari from the collection of Oliver Impey, (Barry Davies Oriental Art, London, 1997), pp.46-47, cat. 20. This large beaker vase was once part of a garniture which mostly consisted of three covered oviform-shaped jars and two cylindrical beaker vases with spreading mouths, all with the same decoration, They were very popular in The Netherlands and elsewhere in Europe, where they were used as decorative items in the interior. (Jörg 2003/1, p.259) The shape of the bulging foot, which spreads and then turns sharply inward, is seen on many ewers of this period as well as on later jars, vases and other pieces. It is a distinctively Japanese feature, called takefushi, 'bamboo-noded' foot. (Jörg 2003/1, p.74) For an Imari decorated large beaker vase, please see: Japanese Imari 1690-1800 - Page 2 - Object 2010732. Condition: Two hairlines to the rim.
