Kutani Vazosu/Vase circa/yakl.1900-1910

Kutani Vazosu Geç Meiji Dönemi'ndendir. Kutani'ye has kırmızı, bej, kahverengi ve altın varakla bezenmiştir. Bezemelerde dönemin modasına uygun olarak floral desenler özellikle şakayıklar, yaprak ve dallar ve bu floral atmosfer içinde uçmaya çalışan bir kuş ile palmet motifleri kullanılmıştır. Bej rengi fon üzerinde çatlamış sır dikkati çeker ki bunun ya Satsuma eğitimi almış sanatçılar eliyle yapılmış olmasından ya da fırın ve sır kalınlığına bağlı bir doğal oluşum olduğunu iddia eden iki farklı görüş vardır. Yükseklik 15cm'dir.

Kutani vase, adorned with floral motifs such as peonies, leaves, branches and a bird travelling around. Kutani red is dominant among beige background with cracked glaze and brown colours. There are two different views on the cracked glaze, unusual to Kutani, the first claims Satsuma trained artists worked in the decoration of some sort of Kutanis, the latter claims firing accident with a nice looking result. Height 15cm. Late Meiji and considerably rare to typical Kutanis.
