Probably for serving sweets during the tea ceremony. Each plate decorated with a flower that is closely related to a certain season: Camellia for winter, chrysanthemum for fall, lotus for summer, rice for fall.

Ostrich egg-shaped censer in fine Satsuma earthenware. Decorated with a thousand flowers in polychrome enamels and gold details on finely crackled glass. Below the artist's mark. This small incense burner is an exceptional Satsuma model due to its rare shape, the quality of its perfect glass (as much by its ivory color as by its regular and fine crackle) and by its rare very artistic decoration of the 1000 flowers. Perfect firing. We have not yet researched who the artist was, certainly one of t...

While modern Bizen pottery tends towards smooth surfaces, regular shapes, and evenly distributed or gradated glazes; by contrast, this piece is rather wild in appearance, with a variety of colors ranging from copper green, reddish ochre, and sandy brown. The shape is erratic, and while it maintains ...
