The surface decorated with two horizontal striations encircling the lower part of the body and entirely covered in muted ash-iron glaze tones, imparting an overall unctuous feel overall.Provenance: From The Sam and Myrna Myers Collection, Paris, France. Acquired between circa 1965-2012.Condition: Excellent condition with only minor wear, firing-inherent irregularities, and light traces of use.Weight: 255.8 gDimensions: Height 12.3 cmHanaire is a traditional Japanese flower vessel employed primarily within the context of the tea ceremony, or 'chanoyu', for the display of seasonal floral arrangements known as 'chabana'. Within the aesthetic and ritual framework of tea practice, flowers hold a position of particular significance, embodying notions of impermanence, seasonal change, and restrained natural beauty. As a result, vessels intended to support and present flowers assume an essential role within the architectural and symbolic composition of the tea space.In early practice, flowers were placed upon an altar and subsequently on a small table situated within the broader spatial setting of the 'toko' alcove. This arrangement was later supplemented by the use of trays, often executed in carved cinnabar lacquer or other decorated surfaces. From the post Momoyama period onward, however, tea practice increasingly favored the placement of the flower arrangement against the central wall of the alcove, a configuration that gradually came to be regarded as the one in which its visual and symbolic presence was most fully realized.Bizen ware designates a tradition of Japanese stoneware produced in and around the village of Imbe, in the former province of Bizen. Its technological and aesthetic foundations derive from Sue ware produced during the Heian period, beginning in the sixth century, while a clearly defined ceramic identity emerged in the course of the Kamakura period in the fourteenth century. The tradition was later identified by the ceramic historian Koyama Fujio as one of the Six Ancient Kilns of Japan.Production reached its apogee in the sixteenth century, during the Momoyama period, when ceramic culture assumed a central role within elite artistic practice. In the Edo period, from the early seventeenth century onward, sustained patronage by the Ikeda lords of the Okayama domain ensured institutional continuity, with kiln-operating families granted formal privileges and long-term protection. The restrained and austere visual language of Bizen ware resonated strongly with the aesthetic principles of the tea ceremony, contributing to its enduring cultural authority.From a technical perspective, Bizen ware is distinguished by exceptional density and hardness, achieved through prolonged firing at high temperatures in wood-fueled kilns. Surfaces display an earthen, iron-rich tonality ranging from reddish to deep brown and remain characteristically unglazed, although incidental deposits of vitrified ash may produce glaze-like effects. Surface markings and tonal variations result from the interaction of flame, ash, and placement within the kiln, and constitute an integral component of the material and visual character of the ware.Literature comparison:Compare a closely related Bizen ware 'bamboo' flower vase (hanaire), Edo period, 17th century, 22.1 cm high, in the British Museum, registration number Franks.1893.
