Description

A FINE HIRADO PORCELAIN MIZUSASHI WITH IMMORTALS
Japan, 18th century, Edo period (1615-1868)

The mizusashi (freshwater jar), used for the tea ceremony, decorated in Hirado underglaze blue with a circumferential image of drunken immortals below a pine tree, gesticulating at each other. The painting is extremely fine and shows dense rockwork below the immortals and a waterfall descending from a mountainous landscape in the background. The lid with a pinecone as a finial.

HEIGHT 22 cm

Condition: Superb condition – absolutely no damages. One minor firing fault, imperfections to glaze and extremely minor, natural crackling around the edge of the inside of the lid.
Provenance: From an Austrian private collection. Kept in the same family since the first half of the 20th century and thence by descent.
