Vintage Japanese Korean Vase, 1980s, Showa Era (SKU 25D-023-0)

Showa-era celadon-style vase with documented Korean folk-art lineage

This vintage piece is a refined example of cross-cultural ceramic artistry, created under the auspices of the Chojong Folk Ceramics Research Institute (趙京青磁民俗陶芸院). The accompanying paper, written in Japanese and Korean, records the background of the potter and the institute, underscoring the workshop’s dedication to preserving traditional Korean blue-green celadon aesthetics for the Japanese market during the late Showa period.

Intended as a display vase for the tokonoma or a curated contemporary interior, it embodies the quiet elegance of Korean-inspired forms combined with Japanese appreciation for artisanal detail. The original documentation and presentation elements make this an attractive choice for collectors of Japanese–Korean ceramics, Showa-era studio ware, and those seeking a statement vessel with clear cultural provenance.

As part of our mission to preserve and share Japanese craftsmanship, we offer antiques that were made not just to be admired, but to be used. These pieces were crafted for everyday life, and we honor their purpose by ensuring they can continue to be enjoyed and lived with today.

We use professional studio lighting to highlight the natural character of the wood. As a result, the tone may appear slightly warmer than under natural daylight.

All vintage and antique items are sold as-is. Each piece may exhibit signs of age, including scratches, wear, or minor imperfections. These are not considered defects but natural evidence of the item’s authenticity and age.
