Message Hello Paul and Bill, It's a pity you didn't post some bigger size pictures and mentioned the size of these "stem(med) cups/bowls". I agree with Bill that it gives a Japanese feeling. I can't see for sure it is transfer-ware, but you don't disagree so Bill must be right about that. If they are Japanese indeed I guess they are big (12/14 cm or higher) and then I would call them "sake cup washers". (maybe thats the same as Bill meant). The only problem I have with that is that the examples I have seen all have a heavy feet and yours don't. This could mean that your's aren't meant to use but have a more decorative function and are from later periode as Bill all ready wrote. Maybe you can post the dimensions? In Japan they started to use transferprinting in 19th. century so 1900 would (in theory) be possible. best regards, Arjan Post a Response |
