1610-1640/Japanese White Porcelain Blue and White Vase/"Imari Ware"/Sake Bottle

About the Item

I bought a very nice vase with white porcelain and blue dye. This is a sake bottle called Imari ware in Japan. Imari ware is a kiln with a long history that began in the 17th century in Saga Prefecture, Japan (a large island in the south of Japan, with a map of Saga Prefecture attached to the photo). Since the main shipping port for products was Imari (place name), it was called "Imari ware" in the consumption area. It is characterized by drawing blue pictures on white porcelain, and there are various designs such as simple pictures and gorgeous pictures. And this is a sake bottle made in the early Edo period (1610-1640) when Imari ware began. The flower pattern is wonderful. The overall balance is also nice. There are repair marks on the mouth. Also, the red circles have small chips. However, it is an inconspicuous place. It's very old, but it's in good condition without breaking because it was used carefully. A special box is also included. Please use it as a vase. We also set the price at a reasonable price so that many people will know the goodness of antiques. Why don't you show off to your friends around you?.

Kaneshige Toyo National Treasure Signed Japanese Bizen Pottery Sake Bottle Vase
Located in Studio City, CA
A beautiful, perfectly shaped and balanced antique Bizen ware shibui sake bottle (tokkuri) vase by renowned Japanese master potter/artist Kaneshige Toyo (1896-1967) featuring a unique natural, wonderfully textured organic forming ash glaze. Kaneshige is universally considered to be the founder of modern Bizen pottery. In 1956, Kaneshige was certified as a Living National Treasure (Important Intangible Cultural Heritage) for his work in Bizen Ware pottery/ceramics. Bizen Ware is a type of Japanese pottery traditionally from the Bizen province, presently a part of the Okayama prefecture. It is considered one of the Six Ancient Japanese Kilns (along with Echizen ware, Seto ware, Shigaraki ware, Tamba ware, and Tokoname ware). The piece is signed/ sealed on the base with one of Kaneshige's traditional incised marks. A rather striking and engaging work. One of the best Kaneshige works we have come across. Scarce and hard to find in such an excellent condition. Would be a fantastic addition to any Japanese/Asian pottery or Bizen Ware collection or eye-catching stand-alone work in about any setting. Kaneshige's work can be found in numerous prominent collections and museums including: Aichi Prefectural Ceramic Museum, Seto, Japan Brooklyn Museum, NY Hagi Uragami Museum, Yamaguchi, Japan Honolulu Art Museum, HI Ibaraki Ceramic Art Museum, Kasama, Japan Indiana Art...
