Object history | Irene Finch note, 2009: Finch 93/19 FE.39-2006 Small b&w bowl with wave-decorated flange, central flower, and 3 groups of teaplants, using konnyaku stamping of a rare type, with little leaves, rather than the usual even outlines. That type (shown on Finch 93/31), superficially resembled Nabeshima outlining, and therefore disappeared with the start of Nabeshima in the early 18th C. This piece may be post 1720. For details of the method see 93/31. Published KoNab Fig 10d; section I I H 2; Arts of Asia Mar 2001, no 20. Relevance 18th C dating helps to date Nabeshima to the 18th C, (when dealers and collectors may desire a17th C date.) |
