Subject:Re: What is this item called?

They're commonly called "Garden Stools" or "Drum Stools". I looked at liveauctioneers.com and found them selling mostly between US$50 and about US$400 when they sold at all, with price apparently based on the appeal of the pattern, age and whether the kiln was identifiable and bore a well-known name.
This seat has nice traditional landscape decoration but the picture reveals no clues as to its age. Maybe someone else who actually collects these Japanese wares can do a better estimate. I own just an inexpensive new one that I actually use outdoors.
Best regards,
Bill H.
