Vintage Japanese Kyoto Style Satsuma Pottery Vase Item # 3503 Click HERE to inquire about this item Japanese Satsuma pottery vase. Satsuma is a province in the southern part of Kyushu. This is a Kyoto-style vase, meaning it was made in a workshop in one of the busy trade centers such as Kyoto, Yokohama, or Osaka, for export to the West. The 3 central marks indicate the workshop and the decorator of the vase. The outer marks are the export marks. This vase dates from about 1900 to 1910. The raised designs (called moriage) and the finely crackled glaze are hallmarks of Satsuma pottery. Earlier 19th century pieces are decorated in minute, delicately drawn, exquisite detail. Later on, as demand for this pottery increased, the decoration became bolder and more abstract. This Satsuma vase measures 13 inches high. The top has a diameter of about 4 and one half inches wide and the widest point on the vase has a diameter of about 8 and one half inches to 9 inches.
