Description from the seller
A complete set of blue and white porcelain wine vessels handmade by artist Tanaka Hajime from Ichiigama, including 1 wine pitcher and 2 wine glasses. Wine bottles can also be used as flower vessels. The whole body is decorated with blue and white flowers which are warm and elegant. The glaze is delicate and soft, with subtle natural openings, and the glaze color is as light as jade. The utensil adopts a unique concave and convex shape. The bottle body is concave inward in many places, and its smooth lines are full of sculpture and three-dimensionality. The matching wine glass also echoes the outline of the melon rim, and its shape is consistent with the wine bottle.
The bottom was engraved by the artist, and the original paulownia box bears a handwritten inscription by the author. It also comes with a complete ceramic calendar documenting the author's exhibition history. The overall state of preservation is good, the glaze gloss is intact, there are slight traces of use, and there are very slight wear on the rim and feet.
