Japanese Antique Pottery Jar 16th-17th Century/ Wabi-Sabi Vase/Tokoname

About the Item

Tokoname is a region located in Aichi Prefecture. It is a pottery production center with a very old history in Japan (around the 12th century). These jars were probably fired during the Muromachi period (14th to 16th centuries) and the Edo period (1603-1868). It is fired in a kiln for a long time, and when the ashes are poured into the kiln, they melt and form a beautiful glaze. Moreover, it takes about one month to fire one time. And the urn has a beautifully balanced shape. Also, the natural glaze is beautifully applied and there is a gradation in the color of the firing. There is a crack in one part of the item, so it cannot be used to hold water. It is a very beautiful pottery Jar Recommendation.
