Unusual Oriental Japanese Shodo Da Dai Character bowl Chinese Characters
Out of stock
Condition Report: Overall Condition Perfect. Size 150mm
An unusual vintage oriental bowl.
Probably Japanese.
Date: possibly 19th Century.
The interior decorated under the glaze with the painted character ‘DA’ (Chinese) or DAI (Japanese) and meaning ‘Great’.
The underside with ink calligraphic marks. This looks like Japanese shodo or ‘grass writing’.
There is also an impressed mark to the side of the foot rim, as shown.
The pale glaze is rather like the Chinese ‘cizhou’ type wares, but I feel this is a Japanese piece.
The fine network of crazing to the glaze (slightly discoloured) would suggest this piece has a little bit of age and is not ‘new’.
An interesting and attractive piece.
