click for details		B & C Antiques 203-929-7312 $295
This lovely round red and black lacquer tray with hand carved peony blossoms and leaves was crafted in a technique known as kamakura-bori and dates to the early 20th century. The alternating layers of color create a rich effect on the low relief carving, adding to its three dimensional quality. There is a wonderful depth and patina to the richly textured finish of this tray, which was very likely a tea ceremony presentation tray. The reverse is simply finished with red lacquer. With its large cr ...click for details

This stunning large Japanese Kutani porcelain vase in simple ovoid form was created by Living National Treasure Tokuda Yasokichi III (b. 1933). The light teal blue glaze on the short neck flows over the shoulder, contrasting with bands of shimmering light green and yellow glazes which culminate in a deep rich aubergine (dark purple) glaze that covers the lower half of the vase. This piece is a marvelous example of Tokuda’s mastery of the “saiyu” technique of color gradation wherein the transluce ...click for details

This handsome Japanese Kutani porcelain vase in waisted cylindrical form was created by Living National Treasure Tokuda Yasokichi III (b. 1933). This vase is a marvelous example of Tokuda’s mastery of the “saiyu” technique of color gradation wherein the translucent Kutani glazes blend and overlap in a brilliant display of colors. The teal blue glaze on the long thin neck continues over the top of the shoulder where it fades into shimmering bands of light green and culminates in a rich aubergine ...click for details

This superb Japanese porcelain dish, hand painted in underglaze blue and bright overglaze polychrome enamels, is the work of Kakiemon Sakaida XII (1878-1963). The highly refined milky white glazed body is decorated in the traditional Kakiemon palette of red, blue, green and yellow with a design of a butterfly hovering above chrysanthemums issuing from a rocky outcropping near a brushwood fence. There is a great restraint in the sparse offset decoration which creates a wonderfully balanced compos ...click for details

Set of Five Imaizumi Imaemon Nabeshima Dishes with Box Vintage Arts: Regional Art: Asian: Japanese: Porcelain: Pre 1980 item# 741797 (stock#2-828)
click for details		B & C Antiques 203-929-7312 $395 for Set of Five
These superior quality Japanese iro Nabeshima porcelain dishes with sloping sides are boldly hand painted in polychrome enamels on a pure white ground. The mark of Imaizumi Imaemon is painted in underglaze blue within the foot ring. We believe these dishes to be by either Imaemon XII (1897-1975) or early Imaemon XIII (1926-2001), which would date them to the mid to late 20th century. In striking contrast to the clear white porcelain body, the front of each dish is simply and subtly decorated wit ...click for details
