Antique pottery bowl from Kumamoto, Japan / Shodai ware / Edo / 18-19 thcentury

About the Item

We have a unique Japanese aesthetic sense. And only we can introduce unique items through our purchasing channels in Japan and the experience we have gained so far, in such a way that no one else can imitate. It is speculated that this pottery was fired in the Shodai kiln in Kumamoto Prefecture during the Edo period, around the 18th century to the first half of the 19th century. It is characterized by the use of iron-rich clay and the appearance of a white glaze that looks like falling snow. As a feature, using clay with a lot of iron, It is characterized by a white glaze that looks like snow. This vessel is made with two types of glaze. One is straw ash glaze and the other is rice husk ash glaze. This rice husk ash glaze changes to a white glaze. This pot is very beautiful with a petal-like rim. However, there is one spot where the crack has been repaired. The part marked with a red arrow has been broken once, but it seems to have been glued later. Therefore, it will not leak even if you put water in it. It's not very noticeable so I wouldn't worry about it. This Shodai ware was made in Kumamoto Prefecture and was used there, so there are not many items in Japan. It is a rare item. Also, a wooden box is included, but it says "Karatsu ware" here. However, Karatsu is in Saga Prefecture, and the location is a little different. It is thought that this writer mistook Shodai ware for Karatsu ware. Beautiful item. it's recommended. Also, I want many people to know the goodness of antiques, so I set the price reasonably. Weight: 0.65kg
