Unique Hidasuki Vase Bizen Style Signed Makuzu

The size of Vase: 10" Dia x 6 3/4" High. Most unique and unusaul Japanese Hidasuki Vase. The vase is made Bizen style hardstone body. It is very unusual finish of surface as well as the vase top rim finish. It has two shrimp design ear on each side. White band has shiniy glazing finish. Inside has brown shiny glazing finish. It is marked with "Makuzu" seal same marking used as Makuzu Kozanfs work. This vase in bizen style Hidasuki made by Mushiake-Yaki (we believe from the history information following). The condition of vase is excellent, no chip, no crack and no hairline except noting due to the nature of top rim edge finish, there are two or three tip points nicked. But it is difficult to tell from the nature of this finish. The vase was made by Makuzu family, but we can not pinpoint who made exactly this vase, whether Makuzu Chozo or Makuzu Kozan first. The vase dating from late Edo to early Meiji period(1860-1900).@The weight of vase 6.5 pounds.

Mushiake-Yaki ware was established in Okayama Prefecture during Kansei Period 1789-1800 by Okayama Fedural Lord's righ men Iki Tadaoki as clan kiln. According to hisory chart, in 1842. their piece were so resembling to Bizen Yaki. They were sued and had to closed down kiln. In 1847 Seifu Yohei and his two students started producing Mushiake Yaki(ware). In 1852, Makuzu Chozo and 2nd Chozo also produced items at Mushiake Kiln. In late Edo(bakumatsu), Karo(joint chief) of Okayama clan invited Seifu Yohei and Miyagawa Kozan(first Makuzu Kozan) and opened Mushieke Kiln again. Around first of Meiji Makuzu Kozan taught in there too. In 1913, Mushiake Toki Seizousho had to closed down again.
