Pair of Mid Century Japanese Nabeshima-Style Porcelain Bowls - tableware dishes - Complimentary History, Styling and care booklet included.
These elegant Japanese porcelain bowls are a refined example of mid-20th century Nabeshima-style ware, crafted in the Arita tradition and decorated in a deep cobalt underglaze with a striking botanical design.
Each bowl features a beautifully scalloped rim, radial Iris floral pattern, and a delicate hand-painted footmark on the base. With fine potted lines and clean glaze work, these pieces echo the prized aesthetics of the Edo-period Nabeshima kilns, though they are likely mid-century export ware created for Western collectors.
