Now available this finely painted Japanese blue and white Arita shallow dish in the 'Kraak' style, dating to the Edo Period (circa 1680-1700).

The central roundel is decorated with a classic fuyo-de (芙蓉手) motif or jardiniere containing three sprays of flowering peony on a terrace with an insect above. The wide rim has eight large alternating panels containing either floral sprigs or sacred Buddhist objects, separated by narrow panels containing ornamental tassels. The reverse is painted with a scrolling band and expected four spur marks.

The decoration is typical of pieces exported by the Dutch East India Co. during the mid to late 17th Century. Civil War in China during the Ming-Qing transition (1640-1680) had severely affected Chinese kilns. As such, the Dutch turned to Japan to fulfill the European demand for blue and white fine porcelain in the same style.

A refined antique Japanese lacquer 'Natsume' tea caddy, dating to the 19th Century Edo Period, circa 1800-1850.

The diminutive Maki-e lacquer caddy, with rounded sides and flush fitting cover, is decorated in gold 'hiramaki-e' on a black lacquer ground, with the 'aoi' mon of three hollyhock leaves used by the Tokugawa clan. Such motifs were frequently used on tea utensils commissioned for or associated with the shogunate and high-ranking samurai families.

The decoration is achieved by layering lacquer onto a fine wooden core, the slightly raised decoration formed of red lacquer to which powdered gold is attached. The fine red lines seen to the 'aoi' leaves are further embellishment to the gold lacquer.

The box stands on a recessed foot, with the fine black lacquer continuing inside. It has been protected within its original brocade quilted silk pouch, complete with braided silk cords, a testament to its careful historical use and storage.

For a similar item please see Danish National Museum, no. Ac.597.
