Antique Japanese Shigaraki Vase with Drip Glaze — 1920s, Taisho Era
A Striking Blend of Earthy Form and Expressive Glaze from One of Japan’s Oldest Kilns

This antique Japanese Shigaraki vase, created in the 1920s during the Taisho Era, is a masterful example of one of Japan’s six ancient kilns. Known for their raw textures and elemental finishes, Shigaraki ware pieces are highly valued for their natural beauty, wabi-sabi appeal, and traditional wood-fired techniques.

This tall, rounded vase features a mesmerizing blue and green drip-glaze, cascading over a creamy beige clay body. The flowing glaze effect gives the impression of rainfall or mountain streams—capturing nature in motion. Subtle crackling and kiln marks add a layer of authenticity and age that makes this piece truly one-of-a-kind.

Whether used as a floor vase, floral vessel, or statement sculpture, this Shigaraki ware vase brings a sense of quiet sophistication and timeless artistry to any space.
