| Approx 10" tall. Old lacquer restoration at top of bottle neck, old chips on base. Dating Edo era, probably 18c. A similar example can be seen in the Nihon Mingei kan, Folk Art Museum in Tokyo. From the Takeo area, Saga Prefecture, Kyushu, Japan. This marvelous sake bottle originates from the Takeo area near Karatsu and Arita: ceramics produced in this area, settled by Korean potters, were often called Takeo-garatsu, and included the better known Yumino wares. The vibrant and stylized painting well demonstrates the warmth and beauty of Japanese folk ceramics. | ||
