Hand-Painted Ryuho Sanyo Toki Japanese Porcelain Bowl
Elevate your table service or home décor with this stunning example of 20th-century Japanese craftsmanship. Produced by Sanyo Toki in the historic ceramics center of Gifu, this bowl belongs to the esteemed Ryuho line, celebrated for bringing the vibrant aesthetic of traditional Japanese art to the modern home.
Artistic Design & Narrative
Auspicious Bird & Flower Motif: The interior features an intricate hand-painted scene depicting a bird amongst seasonal flora. In Japanese culture, this classic pairing represents the harmony between nature and the passing of time, serving as a symbol of beauty and renewal.
Masterful Palette: The piece utilizes a traditional overglaze enamel technique. Rich iron reds and cobalt blues are paired with forest greens and delicate gilt accents, creating a sophisticated visual depth that catches the light beautifully.
Distinctive Form: Many Ryuho pieces are characterized by a refined, scalloped or clover-shaped rim, lending a sculptural elegance to the porcelain that makes it a standout piece for display.
Specifications & Authenticity
Origin: Made in Japan; authentic Mino-yaki (Mino ware).
The Maker's Mark: The base features the hand-drawn blue kanji for Ryuho (龍峰), which translates to "Dragon Peak"—the hallmark of the Sanyo Toki kilns.
Material: High-quality, fine-grained Japanese porcelain.
Dimensions: 6” W x 6 “ D x 3.5” H
Versatility: Perfectly sized for serving traditional rice and noodle dishes, or as a decorative "catchall" centerpiece for a console or vanity.
Condition: Very good vintage condition. Wear to painted rim in a couple of spots.
