Description: Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Antique Japanese “Brain” glaze vase from the Meiji-Taisho Period (1920s-1930s). Features the rare Vermiculated “Brain” glaze technique, also known as “Crawling Shino”, a unique technique which resembles the texture of a cerebral cortex, resulting of the glaze cooling too fast thus not fitting properly to the clay body. When the artist uses crawling, it creates small bare spots on the surface of the piece, making visible the bare clay body beneath. Applied decorative ring handles. The vase is covered in its entirety with off-white crackled brain glaze, and the bottom is unglazed. These vases were sold primarily to be made into lamps, and I am assuming that was the case for this one, as there is a hole in the bottom of the vase. (Of course, it could also be used as simply a vase!) Vase is nice and heavy and is a very unique piece of art. Vase stands approximately 9” tall and is approximately 6.5” wide at its widest point. The vase is not marked. It has not been cleaned and is being sold “AS IS.”
