Cut from a hump of clay after throwing, a detail thread-cut pattern can be seen on the unglazed base. Also visible on the base is a deep cut to one side where the thread ...click for details

Japanese, Ceramic, Stoneware, JAR with Spout, 19th Cen Antiques: Regional Art: Asian: Japanese: Stoneware: Pre 1900 item# 313132 (stock#C-006)
click for details		Mellott, Richard Antiques 415-924-7182 $650
Offered here is a large, stoneware SPOUTED JAR, called an unsuke in Japan...Jars like this were made in large numbers at numerous kilns in southern Japan (Kyushu) from the 18th century to the early 20th century....Because this jar has a blue splash of glaze around the shoulder, over the iron-glazed body, it was probably made in northern Kyushu, perhaps at the Karatsu kilns...And, due to the signs of wear on the base, and the noble, strong shape, I believe this piece dates to the 19th century...T ...click for details
