Description:
- Kutani porcelain sugar bowl of Japanese origin.
- Kutani porcelain is a type of Japanese glazed porcelain. Characterised by a very well-defined decorative pattern with a black outline, they were very successful.
- It was introduced in the Showa era (1926-1989).
- This is a beautiful sugar bowl with a grey base, and a variety of colours, gold, pink, red, etc. It has various characters, with floral details and houses. All hand painted.
- The sugar bowl has a medium thickness, with sound to the touch, made in white porcelain.
- The figures represent a family, a married couple with two daughters.
- On the base are the letters: Made in Japan, in red.
- After analysing the sugar bowl, we have come to the conclusion that the technique used is mixed, using decals in some parts and drawing by hand most of the teapot.
- All these characteristics give the sugar bowl a very interesting patina, with a very attractive and high quality appearance.
