Unmatched museum quality execution in the finest painting of Royal family, bird, butterfly and nature motif in this rare signed lidded remarkable Meiji Period Kutani bottle vase. Kutani ware was originally produced around 1655 when the Maeda clan wanted to compete with Kyoto's thriving ceramics trade. The history of Kutani ware is rich and complex. Kutani ceramics have their origin in a small remote village in the mountains (Kutani means 9 valleys) of the Ishikawa Prefecture. The main city, Kanazawa, is one of the most famous castle towns in Japan. If Kutani ceramics are little known overseas, on the contrary they are very famous in Japan as they are really representative of the Japanese culture. This is an authentic original piece in the an aka-e kinrande style. It is signed with the two character mark "Ku Tani" as well as the maker's artisan studio mark. Circa late 1890s to turn of the Century. Dimensions: 15" h. X 7" X 7".
