Satsuma Kinkozan Japanese Stoneware Incense Burner With Gold Decoration, Kyoto, Meiji Era
Artist: Kinkozan
Rare Satsuma stoneware incense burner with painted and glazed decoration, marked on the reverse and attributed to the Kinkozan workshop, surmounted by the emblem of the Shimazu clan, Kyoto, late 19th/early 20th century. Remarkable painted decoration, enhanced with gold, depicting palace scenes on a blue background on all four sides. The Kinkozan workshop, former suppliers to the imperial court during the Edo period, was one of the most important in Kyoto. As good in quality as the so-called original production from the Kagoshima kilns. Complete and in good condition, this incense burner shows signs of internal use; the underside of the lid is burnt but still emits a faint scent of perfume. All questions welcome.
