COLLECTOR’S NOTE

Ko Imari style porcelains draw inspiration from traditional Japanese export wares produced in the Imari region. Small sake bottles such as this were commonly used for serving rice wine and are now appreciated for their decorative appeal and hand painted artistry. Pieces with vivid enamel work remain popular among collectors of Japanese ceramics.
