Japanese Antique Pottery Black Vase / Satsuma Ware / 1600-1800/Edo Period

About the Item

This is a vase baked in Kagoshima prefecture in Kyushu called Satsuma ware in Japan. (The location of Satsuma ware is marked in red on the Japanese map.) In general, Satsuma ware is well known for its luxurious decorations in various colors, but it is made for the upper class and for export. This black Satsuma ware is a pottery for the general public and was used as a daily necessities. This was made in the Edo period. (1600-1800) It has the shape of a gourd and is very cute. I think it was probably used as a sake bottle. A metal fitting is attached to the mouth. It is designed so that it can be covered with a cork. There is some glaze exfoliation. But this was no leak. Very nice to use as a vase. I recommend it. Also, I want many people to know the goodness of antiques, so the price is set reasonably. There are few stores that sell such things in 1st dibs. We sell with confidence. Weight: 0.5 kg.

  • 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...
