Satsuma - the word is practically synonymous with intricately detailed painted Japanese pottery. Most of the antique Satsuma pottery seen today was made between the 1860s and the early 1920s for the export market and sent to Europe and America. Satsuma has actually been made since around 1600, but those were not for export, and very few featured faces until the mid-19th century. In fact, the very first Satsuma pieces were made by a Korean potter living in Japan, who was asked by Lord Shimazu to open a kiln. There the potter created heavy stoneware pieces made with dark, iron-rich clay and finished with thick, black glaze. These pieces are extremely rare today and mostly reside in museums.
This vintage Satsuma reproduction lidded porcelain box features a traditional Japanese Moriage floral and peacock motif.
This lidded bowl is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, or scratches. less
