AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Lovely lot of three Japanese bowls made of fine Satsuma earthenware dating from the Meiji era (1868-1912).

They are richly hand-decorated with floral, botanical, and bird motifs, as well as figures, enhanced with gold leaf gilding.
The enamels show a fine crackle pattern characteristic of late 19th-century productions.

Some pieces feature a compartmentalized set design typical of productions intended for export to Europe.


A few signs of wear, but they are in good condition as you can see from the photos.
