Japanese Antique Jar "e-chi-zen ware" 1603-1800 / Beautiful Baked Vase

About the Item

It is "Echizen ware". Echizen is a historic kiln located in Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan. It is said to have originated around the 9th century. There are 6 kilns with a long history in Japan, It is one of them. This is a jar made around the Edo period (1603-1800). It is baked in a kiln for a long time, and the ash is poured down, and it melts into a beautiful glaze. This jar is very expressive. You can see black areas, red areas, gray areas, and yellow-green areas. In addition, the characteristic of Echizen-yaki is that the glaze is applied vigorously with a brush. You can also see the traces of the brush on this jar as well. There are various uses for the jar. Add water, add grains, add seeds. But it's a very old item. If you put water in it, it may leak from the bottom, so if you want to decorate the flowers, put water in another container and put it in the jar. It is a jar with a very beautiful design and color. Weight: 4kg.

  • Japanese Antique Pottery Hanging Vase/Edo/1800s/Boat-Shaped Vase
    Located in Sammu-shi, Chiba
    This is a black-glazed boat-shaped pottery made in the late Edo period of Japan. This will be a hanging vase. Pour water directly into this and decorate the flowers. Also, perhaps this is a pottery called Seto-yaki. Seto is an ancient kiln located in Aichi Prefecture. Various shapes and colors were produced there, and in the late Edo period, dark glazed pottery was also produced. When a dark brown glaze is applied, the areas with thick glaze look black, and the areas with thin glaze look brown. I put water directly into this and left it for a day, but there was no water leakage. I would say it is in very good condition. Although it is a small item, it has a very strong presence. It has a glossy and elegant appearance. There are many types of Seto pottery...
