16th C. Japanese Muromachi Shigaraki Ware Pottery Jar

Item Details

Description

East Asia, Japan, late Muromachi to early Edo period, Shiga Prefecture, ca. 16th to 17th century CE. A splendid and quite sizable example of Shigaraki ware - an earthenware jar featuring a rugged surface and voluminous form built up from several stages with coils of clay. The vessel's compelling presentation reflects the drama of its creation in a large tunnel kiln, where hardwood ash settled onto its molten surface. Shigaraki ware can be recognized immediately by the distinctive properties of the local clay, a gritty mixture of sand, feldspar, and trace metals that fire to a deep red-brown or golden-red, as seen in this example. Size: 17" Diameter x 21.75" H (43.2 cm x 55.2 cm)

Provenance: private southern California, USA collection, acquired November 2004; ex-Eldred's Auction Gallery, East Dennis, Massachusetts, USA
