This porcelain covered jar and incense burner are superbly decorated with handpainted Lucky Gods/Gods of Good Fortune. We believe these pieces to have been manufactured pre World War II, perhaps as early as the Taisho Period, during the 1920’s.
The jar is 4 1/2 inches in height to the top of its button finial cover, and measures 3 inches in diameter across. The cover has three fan-shaped panels. There is a single handpainted Lucky God figure and Japanese writing in each, surrounded by cinnabar and gold color band design. The body of the jar has six square panels, each with a God of Good Fortune, as well as additional symbols. The jar sits on a round 1 5/8 inch pedestal base.
Each of the four sides of the incense burner measures 2 1/2 inches and it stand 3 1/4 inches high with four wedge feet under the base. There is a metal insert for the incense burning area. Cinnabar and gold bands surround the Lucky Gods design.
Both pieces are in fine vintage condition without chips, flakes, or loss of vivid color. Each has a magenta, Made in Japan, stamp accompanied by two Japanese symbols, which most likely represent maker’s marks. |
