This pair of antique Japanese Satsuma lidded jars originates from the Meiji period around 1900. Made from earthenware finished with a crackle glaze, both pieces display rich cream and gold tones, accented by hand-painted polychrome enamel details in red, white, green, blue, and brown. The vessels are heavily decorated with intricate figural scenes and geometric diaper patterns, completed by small raised finials on their matching covers. Each jar stands 14 cm high, 16 cm wide, and 16 cm deep. Placed in a modern interior, these lidded jars suit display upon a sideboard top where their elaborate decoration can be easily observed. The vessels function as decorative display pieces, adding traditional Japanese craftsmanship to living spaces or dining rooms without requiring active use.

FAQs

Satsuma ware originated in the Satsuma province of Japan during the late sixteenth century, evolving significantly during the Meiji period to feature intricate overglaze enamelling and gilding on a buff-coloured earthenware body.

These pieces were crafted using low-fired earthenware with a yellowish cream glaze featuring fine micro-crackle. Decorative details were applied using polychrome enamels, raised slip decoration, and gold leaf gilding.

Authentic Satsuma items display a characteristic cream-coloured earthenware body with a finely crackled clear glaze, dense polychrome enamelling, and frequently bear maker signatures or Shimazu crest marks on the base.

Displaying Satsuma jars on a dark timber sideboard or inside a glass cabinet creates visual contrast, complementing both minimalist modern spaces and traditional eclectically curated interiors.

Dust gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth or horsehair brush, avoiding water immersion or liquid cleaning products that could damage surface gilding, delicate enamels, and porous earthenware.
