Jar / Bizen
Momoyama Period 16th C. Bizen Jar
A true masterpiece of 16th century Momoyama period Bizen; the color patches on the side are extremely rare on such work. In perfect condition with an old box, 23.5cm.tall, incised potter mark on side. I Many reference photos from my extensive Ko-Bizen book collection of such works, hardly any though with this color tonality, can be viewed at trocadero.com/japanesepottery/items/779477/item779477.html . Also, our gallery was featured on NHK national television Bizen special this year and a link to photos--text all in Japanese though---can be viewed here: nhk.or.jp/tsubo/arc-20080229.html If the link takes you to a Google page, click the link that says File 82.
