Oliver Sargent Antiques has dated this Japanese Kakiemon Porcelain Bowl to the 17th Century.
For Sale – Fine Antique Japanese Imari Porcelain Bowl, Kakiemon Design, circa 1690

The finely potted bowl features steep, elegantly shaped sides with a deeply fluted exterior wall, richly decorated with a traditional Kakiemon-inspired floral design. The decoration is executed in a characteristic combination of underglaze cobalt blue, iron-red, gilding, yellow and green enamels, creating a particularly appealing and colourful example of early Japanese Imari porcelain.

The interior well is attractively decorated with individual floral flower-head motifs, complementing the exterior decoration. The underside of the bowl is finished with a traditional floral motif, enclosed within a single circular border, all painted in underglaze cobalt blue.

The bowl is a fine example of the sophisticated Japanese porcelain produced during the late 17th century, reflecting the distinctive decorative influences and aesthetic associated with early Imari and Kakiemon-style ceramics. Its fluted form, finely executed decoration and attractive colour palette make it a particularly desirable piece for collectors of antique Japanese porcelain, early Imari ware and Oriental ceramics.
