Subject:Large Japanese vase.
Posted By: Jane Thu, Feb 23, 2023 IP: 151.210.167.113
Hello,
Would someone please tell me the type of pottery and approximate age of this Japanese vase? Is it Edo or Meiji?
Thank you.

Looks like it might be a late Meiji-Taisho (ca 1900-1925) vase depicting the mythical "Demon-Queller" Shoki (Zhong Kui in China). The red writing on the foot may be a factory notation but I'll defer to others in this case. Also some dim impressions on the foot that may be characters, along with a dark outlined rectangular area like a stamp might make, none readable.

Best regards,

Bill H.

Does the presence of moriage suggest early 2oth century bearing in mind the other decorastion. Just my thought. Best

According to gotheborg.com, Moriage slip-decorated wares were produced in Japan from the end of the 1800s to the mid-1900s.
