ANTIQUE #SA1177538

Pair Of Hododa (????) Satsuma Vases With Shimazu Mon — Exhibition Quality, C. 1895–1915

£1,200    $1,636    €1,382
A superb matched pair of Japanese Satsuma vases by Hododa (????), Yokohama, late Meiji to early Taisho. Thin-walled ivory-toned bodies with fine craquelure are densely decorated in overglaze enamels and sumptuous kinrande gold.
 
Scenes alternate between mandarin ducks and songbirds among blossom and cranes by the water before misted peaks, unified by textile-pattern gilt bands scattered with mon. The brushwork is crisp, the colour layering deep, and the gilding exquisitely controlled — true exhibition-grade work from Japan’s Yokohama export ateliers.
 
Undersides show the Shimazu crest above the Hododa gilt cartouche (one clear, one rubbed).
