Description

A BLUE AND WHITE KOSOMETSUKE SHELL-FORM DISH, TIANQI PERIOD
This lot is from a single owner collection and is therefore offered without reserve

China, 1621-1627. Finely modeled in the form of an abalone shell supported on three short conical feet, and freely decorated in shades of cobalt blue with a crayfish swimming near the seabed amid aquatic plants.

Provenance: The Collection of Sam and Myrna Myers, Paris, France. Acquired between circa 1965-2012.
Condition: Very good condition with minor wear and manufacturing irregularities including expected minor fritting around the rims and few dark spots.

Weight: 190 g
Dimensions: Length 15 cm

Kosometsuke, literally ‘old blue and white’, refers to porcelains made specifically to cater to the Japanese taste. With the growing demand for wares for tea drinking and kaiseki meals during the tea ceremony in Japan, Chinese kilns developed new, irregular shapes and decorations. Kosometsuke porcelain was intentionally manufactured using poorly levigated clay and roughly potted with inconsistencies or imperfections that appealed to the Japanese. Typical Kosometsuke wares are often slightly warped in shape and bear rim ‘frits’ from manufacture which were intentionally made and often perceived as damage or a mistake during firing. Often the glaze would flake off the body of the piece and the edges, known as mushikui, or ‘earth worm nibbles’, were particularly prized.

Literature comparison:
Compare a closely related Ko-sometsuke blue and white conch-form dish with a crayfish, dated to the Ming dynasty, 17th century, 18.3 cm long in the Sekido Museum of Art, Tokyo.
