Oriental Flowering Hawthorn Cloisonne Double Gourd Vase
Located in Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire
A very fine and stylish antique oriental, Chinese attributed, cloisonne double gourd vase dating from the latter 19th century. The vase stands on a flat brass base with a wide round base, pinched waist and narrow round upper section with a funnel style top with a flat metal rim. The body of the vase is decorated with a mixture of flowering shrubs dominated with flowering hawthorn incorporating a butterfly to one side. The continuous scenes are decorated in colored enamels against a bright turquoise ground and set between formal borders around the foot, the pinched centre and top of the vase. The vase is typically not marked but is a striking and very stylish example.

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

Japanese Antique Sake Bottle 'Fukumusume' 1960s Showa era
Located in Paris, FR
This is a Sake bottle made in Japan around 1960s. On this bottle, it is written 'Fukumusume' and it's the name of one of the Japanese Sake.
This bottle was used by a company which was located in Hyogo prefecture, Kobe city.
It is thought to have been distributed from the late Edo period to the early Showa period and was used by the general public for retail use by liquor stores. Sake shops rented out Tokkuri (sake cups) and sold them to customers by filling them with the amount of sake they wanted. On the sake bottle, the name of the liquor store, the brand name, and, in the Showa period, the phone number of the store were also written. Customers would take the sake bottle with them when they went shopping, and it was a great way to advertise the store along the way. (By Sake Antiques)
