About the Item
This pair of large jars has refined blue and white hand-painted decoration that showcases a songbird perched on a flowering tree. Above, two birds are depicted in flight.
The jars are mirror images of each other.
The painter used an underglaze of grey-blue on creamy white porcelain, which resulted in a peaceful garden scene.
Along the top edge of each jar is a blue band with scrolling vines and flowers that match the blue band on each cover.
Finally, there is a decorative blue band that runs along the base of each jar.
Dimensions: 20" tall x 10" diameter at the widest point x 5.15" diameter at the base
Condition: Excellent
Price: $3,400
Background:
Japan opened itself to the rest of the world in the mid-nineteenth century.
In the Meiji era (1868-1912), Japanese porcelain manufacturers succeeded with exports designed to satisfy Western demand for Japanese ceramics.
For more information on the background of Meiji export porcelain, see Meiji Ceramics: The Art of Japanese Export Porcelain and Satsuma Ware 1868-1912 by Gisela Jahn.

Pair of Antique Japanese Imari Jars Meiji Period Circa 1880
Located in Katonah, NY
Both jars are hand-painted in traditional Imari designs. They feature beautiful waterside scenes painted in cobalt blue and two shades of iron red, all with gilded accents.
The colors are vibrant, and the scenes are complex.
One jar features a shoreline, while the other scene features a cresting wave.
Above the main scenes on each jar, there are medallions adorned with gilded floral decorations. Additionally, a ring of patterns inspired by Japanese textiles encircles the shoulder and base of each jar.
The hand-painted panels on the reverse side mirror the designs on the front but include many subtle variations.
On the side of each jar, there is a classic Imari depiction of a vase set on a garden terrace.
These exquisite pieces were crafted in Japan during the Meiji Period, around 1880.
