There is a rich reference to the decorative arts of the Meiji period on this calm persimmon-glazed jar by Inoue Haruo(1910-1975). Inoue was a highly awarded Kyoto potter who studied with Kiyomizu RokubeVI; he entered his first exhibition in 1932. After that the list is quite long and three times his works were presented to the emperor. This jar has a noble form, fine glazing and a quaint-simple drawing of a pear on the front. In perfect condition with a signed box, 20.5cm.tallx22.3, stamped on base.
