22700 13th generation Sakaida Kakiemon (Muddy hand cockscomb pattern vase)

Height 30.8cm Diameter 25.0cm

This was made by the great potter Sakaida Kakiemon 13th (1906-1982) himself, who, together with his father, the 12th generation, restored the once-decorated "Nigote" style, boasting the greatest skill among all Kakiemon generations, and built the foundation for the prosperity of modern Kakiemon. This Nigote Cockshead Pattern Vase is full of excellent workmanship and dignity. Its appeal lies in the beautiful moist milky white base that is unique to Nigote, and the design, which displays the originality of the 13th generation, draws the viewer in. The traditional base and design harmonize to adorn the modern era... This extremely fine and elegant piece truly expresses the beliefs of the 13th generation.
