Comments:Chinese lidded box, in the shape of a persimmonPorcelain with underglaze cobalt blue, Jingdezhen kilns, Shonzui ware, 1630-40s日本向け中国磁器Chinese porcelains for JapanFrom the early 1600s Japanese merchants ordered Chinese porcelains in shapes and designs that suited the Japanese marcket.Each of the three small incense containers has a playful shape that appealed to Japanese taste. The potter deliberately distorted the shape of the water jar with his elbow, something never done for Chinese customers.(Label copy, 2017)
