Paul Jacoulet, 1955, Fleurs D'Hiver

Japanese: Woodblock Prints Pre 1960: item #1016153

Published in June, 1955. The winter flowers of the island of Oshima are camellias, from which is extracted a famous oil popular as a haridressing. This print would seem to have been inteded as the right half of a pair, but since "Graines de Camellia" all too obviously features the same three girls, it is unlikely that a pair was ever completed. Fair condition, the back of the paper is toned. The colors of the image are bright, some tape residue.

A Published Hirado All Blue Suiteiki (Water Dropper)

Japanese: Ceramics: Porcelain Pre 1900: item #1016047
ICHI 1663

We have all of the major books and catalogs on Hirado porcelain and this is one of the very few pieces of Hirado that are executed with an all Hirado blue exterior that we could find. Our research shows that less than 1-2 % of Hirado was done in all blue.
