With a rich ko-kutani palette of brink red, blue, and forest green, this small teapot makes a colorful splash! It is decorated with a lion attended by several monks, none of whom have a face. I have actually seen several items, both kutani and imari, decorated in this manner. The piece which is in excellent condition, although missing its reed handle, measures 6" wide by 5 1/2" high - Japan, c. 1880.
