A set of three Japanese Kutani vases
|
| Dateline: Circa 1920 |
Item# 36950 |
A set of three Japanese Kutani vases, two trumpet vases and a centre wide neck vase. Circa 1920. They measure 33 and 37 cms high, 13 and 14.5 inches.
Kutani ware is a style of Japanese porcelain which was first produced in the mid 1650s in the area of Kanazawa, Komatsu, Kaga, and Nomi in Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan. Goto Saijiro, a member of the Maeda clan, set up a kiln in the village of Kutani (now part of the city of Kaga) on the order of Maeda Toshiharu, ruler of the Kaga domain. The porcelain style is known for multiple colors such as greens, blues, yellows, purples, and reds and bold designs covering most of the surface of each piece.
A kiln was set up by 1656, and Kutani ware was produced until about 1704-1710, though the reasons for this closure are debated. Theories put forward include that supplies of the pigments necessary for the glazing were difficult to find, or that there were financial difficulties. This period of production is now referred to as the Old Kutani. The kiln was re established in the 1820s and Kutani ware began being produced again. Additional kilns were established over the years, and many variations on the Old Kutani style appeared.
Condition: Excellent.
Dimensions: They measure 33 and 37 cms high, 13 and 14.5 inches.
