Antique Japanese bowl Satsuma

Antique Japanese ceramic bowl Satsuma, 19th century. Signed by the artist. Dimensions: 7.0 Χ 11.0 Χ 7.5 cm.

Technical and artistic innovations of the Meiji era turned porcelain into one of the most internationally successful Japanese decorative art forms. Satsuma ware was a name originally given to pottery from Satsuma province, elaborately decorated with gilt and enamel.

These wares were highly praised in the West. Seen in the West as distinctively Japanese, this style actually owed a lot to imported pigments and Western influences, and had been created with export in mind.

Workshops in many cities raced to produce this style to satisfy demand from Europe and America, often producing quickly and cheaply. So the term “Satsuma ware” came to be associated not with a place of origin but with lower-quality ware created purely for export.

Despite this, artists such as Yabu Meizan and Makuzu Kōzan maintained the highest artistic standards while also successfully exporting. From 1876 to 1913, Kōzan won prizes at 51 exhibitions, including the World’s fair and the National Industrial Exhibition.
