Meiji Japanese Stone Vessel Possible Shoji Hamada ?
Dates 1868 to 1914 with the years 1880 to 1910 the strongest possibility. Measures 6 " high , the top diameter is 3 1/2 " while the base is 4 " across …
Dates 1868 to 1914 with the years 1880 to 1910 the strongest possibility. Measures 6 " high , the top diameter is 3 1/2 " while the base is 4 " across . Very thick and heavy stoneware. Earth-tone semi-matte glaze. The base line is wiped of any excess glaze in the likes of Shoji Hamada and William Staite-Murray. The bottom is covered with an early felt pad from the 1900's to 1920's giving a true indication that this pottery is at least as old as that. From a Toronto, Ontario doctor's estate. I haven't removed the felt padding to look for a signature, but it is truly tempting. Museum and investment quality. Most likely made in the Shigaraki Kiln area of Japan outside of Kyoto.

Circa 1890 -1900. Owari Shippo made in Nagoya, Japan. Measures 4 " high by about 2 1/2 " square. Unmarked as typical for early pieces. Pigeon blood red with underlying bamboo / palm trees. Excellent condition or better . Has silver plated bronze rims with much brassing. If investing in Japanese Shippo, buy the earliest pieces as possible. Red is the absolutely most desirable colour. This piece is certainly museum quality and the best that I have owned. Virtually a masterpiece in its' own rite. Rare.
