Impressive and beautifully potted Japanese Onta-yaki jar from a remote mountain village in Ōita Prefecture. Featuring a characteristic incised decoration and gorgeous amber-brown glaze. Stamped 小鹿田焼 ‘Onta ware’ – pieces are never signed by an individual to signify that the production was the combined work of the community, not just one person.
In great vintage condition without damage.
Height: 21.5 cm
