A RARE CEDAR BROWN-GLAZED POTTERY CHAIRE WITH SHIFUKU

Japan, Momoyama (1573-1603) to early Edo period (1615-1868)

The ovoid form rising from a slightly concave foot to a gently everted rim flanked by two scrolling handles at the shoulder, covered overall in a lustrous dark brown glaze with a slight russet tinge, stopping irregularly above the unglazed base revealing the buff ware. The pottery chaire (tea caddy) with a lid and accompanied by the original silk brocade shifuku.

HEIGHT 8.3 cm

Condition: Very good condition with minor wear and manufacturing irregularities.
Provenance: Gijs Bosch Reitz (1860-1938), acquired by him in Japan in 1900, sold at Sotheby's Amsterdam, 12 May 1982. From the collection of Felix Tikotin (1893-1986), acquired from the above and thence by descent within the family. Sigisbert Chrétien Bosch Reitz, known as Gijs, was a Dutch painter in the Impressionist and Symbolist styles. He was also associated with the Laren School. Felix Tikotin was an architect, art collector, and founder of the first Museum of Japanese Art in the Middle East. Born in Glogau, Germany, to a Jewish family, his ancestors had returned with Napoleon from Russia from a town named Tykocin. He grew up in Dresden and after World War I, he traveled to Japan and immediately fell in love with the culture. In April 1927, he opened his first own gallery in Berlin. The entire family survived the Holocaust, and in the 1950s Tikotin slowly resumed his activities as a dealer in Japanese art. He became, once again, very successful and prominent, holding exhibitions all over Europe and the United States. When he first visited Israel in 1956, he decided that the major part of his collection belonged in that country. In 1960, the Tikotin Museum of Japanese Art was opened in Haifa.

A special feature of this collection was that all the chaire still had their original bags (shifuku) and wooden boxes. The expert at the time when these were sold at Sotheby’s, J. van Daalen, wrote the fine catalogue entries, including a mention of the boxes and distinguishing between the enclosed wrapping cloths (lapje) and bags (shifuku [zakje]). Since the shifuku were sewn from precious old brocades (meibutsugire), van Daalen also gave a short description of them. He acknowledged the importance of these paraphernalia for tea ceramics in his brief article (1982) Lids, Boxes and Bags, Some Notes of a Collection of Tea-Ceramics, in: Andon, Jg. 2, pp. 18-22, no. 5.

With a wood tomobako storage box with labels ‘kokusai karamono chaire’ and a collection number ‘196’. The interior with two labels inscribed, ‘1100- karamono Itokiri’ and ‘Toshiro yaki karamono no Itokiri.’
