Small Antique Edo Period 1690-1720 Japanese Porcelain Teapot Imari Red Gold
In stock
Condition Report: Handle restored and lid missing. Size: 10x6CM LengthxHeight
Small teapot with rounded body on flat unglazed base. Curved handle and a short straight spout. Small upright mouthrim. Imari decorated in iron-red and gold on the sides with leaves and two deeply recessed kidney-shaped panels with modelled decorations in high relief. Both with flowers.
Bottles, vases, teapots and other objects with similar recessed panels that form a kind of window through to a deeper picture layer were only produced for a short period. This was probably because they were too time-consuming to make and therefore expensive. This type of decoration is only found on Japanese pieces; Chinese imitations are still unknown. (Jörg 2003/1, p.98, cat.96)
Japanese Imari objects decorated in a low relief are rare. In ‘Fine & Curious’ a bottle (cat. 96), two teapots (cat. 243) and a shaving bowl (231), all decorated in a low relief, are published. Jörg states that these objects could have been made in a specialised workshop producing for export. (Jörg 2003/1, p.100 & p.186)
The inset relief-modelled scenes, often of chickens, can also be found on longnecked bottles. (Impey 2002, p,221, cat. 381)
Condition: Handle restored and lid missing. Size: 10x6CM LengthxHeight
