Kamakura Period Tokoname Tsubo-Jar

Catalogue: Antiques: Regional Art: Asian: Japanese: Pre 1492   item# 952326

Kamakura Period Tokoname Tsubo-Jar

380,000 yen--Exchange Rates at www.xe.com/ucc/ 

Here is a 13th-14th century Tokoname tsubo-jar with a full swelling form and shibui 'clay flavor.' Around the neck are small speckles of ash glaze, yet for the most part this jar speaks of form and clay. As noticed in the photos the neck has been chipped and broken; it only adds mystique. A piece we often look for yet rarely find, it stands 23.5cm.tallx24, no box, yet a custom one can be made for a bit extra.

Dating back over 800 years, this object could be mistaken for a ceramic 'vase' made by Tsujimura Shiro; actually it's a Tokoname kame jar that folded, fused and generally melted in with kiln 'tools' to form this standing sculpture; from behind it looks like a Buddha. In front there are two small openings where one can place flowers in; a very exciting and engaging piece, stands at 42cm.tall.

Here is a rare glazed Shigaraki 19th century arare tsubo jar in perfect condition; it stands 22.5cm.tallx20.5, no box. A good medium-sized jar that I hardly come across with this 'action-painting' glazing scheme, quite shibui.

One aspect of Bizen I truly love is its older okimono or figure side. Many masterpieces were made in the Momoyama period, yet most date from the Meiji period. Here is a fine example of Hotei---pictured in Katsura Matasaburo's Meiji Bizen Saikumono book---leaning on his bag of treasures. Also more about Bizen saikumono/okimono can be read in an article I wrote in Daruma (www.darumamagazine.com) issue 31. In fine condition, a teeny nick where the fan ends in his hand, 9.2cm.tall, 16cm.long a ...click for details
