Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:15097706 |
Japanese Banko ware yokode kyusu pottery teapotThis is an incredibly fine Banko ware grey clay body with white and gold over enamelled decoration. This piece is in immaculate condition and carries the classic Banko stamp above another complex potter’s mark (see photographs). The handle, scrolled end and hanging loop have survived remarkably with no damage whatsoever. The gilding and detail applied to the gilding is beautiful and I doubt a finer example could be found. This is undoubt...edly made by a master potter.Dimensions: 9cms diameter x 15cms across including the handle
11.5cms across including the spout x 9cms high
Weight: 120gmsCondition: Immaculate condition, a museum quality piece. NOTE: The lines in the photographs, particularly on the bottom of the lid are NOT hairline cracks but appear to be the imprint left by fine folded material, possibly silk.
