A splendid set of seven matching Japanese pottery Kyoto ware bowls, all signed Kenzan, after the master potter Ogata Kenzan (1663-1743). These hand thrown and hand painted bowls were made c.1920-30 (or slightly earlier), in vibrant red, yellow and green foliage design with deep brown outlines and rims, over a thick cream coloured glaze, with all-over crazing. Both the five 3" individual bowls and the large 4-7/8" bowl are signed Kenzan on the sides. This set is in excellent condition with no cracks, staining, losses, repairs or damage other than a 1/8" chip on the edge of one small bowl, which doesn't go through the brown painting on the upper rim. Surface shipping starts at $15 (to the US - other spots may vary) - insured is higher, and mandatory on items over $85 if paid with a credit card. We do ship internationally. All of our prices are in $US.
