About the Item

Japanese Meiji Period Glazed Katan Ware Peacock, ca. 1890 DIMENSIONS: Height: 5.5 inches Depth: 9 inches Width: 3.5 inches ABOUT This finely crafted glazed ceramic peacock is a striking example of Katan ware from Japan’s Meiji Period (1868–1912). Dating to around 1890, the piece showcases the refined detailing and graceful lines characteristic of Meiji-era craftsmanship. The peacock is rendered with elegant posture and delicately incised feathers, brought to life through a richly glazed surface in subtle, naturalistic tones. Its compact yet expressive form, measuring just 5.5 inches in height, embodies both artistic charm and technical skill. A decorative work of art, it reflects the era’s fascination with natural subjects and the exceptional ceramic traditions of late 19th-century Japan.
