Vintage Japanese Cylindrical Vase with Flowing Blue Flambe Glaze 13"

Japanese Cylindrical Vase with Flowing Blue Flambe Glaze

Japan, 20th century

Dimensions: 3" dia. × 13" H (8 cm × 33 cm)

A sleek cylindrical vase in heavily potted stoneware, covered in a dramatic flowing flambe glaze that grades from deep cobalt and indigo at the shoulder through brilliant sky-blue midtones to an unglazed dark stoneware foot. The glaze surface shows the characteristic drip and streak of high-temperature reduction firing, with pale lavender-white streaks running vertically where the glaze thinned and pooled. The effect strongly evokes the Chinese Jun ware (鈞窯) aesthetic, reinterpreted through a bold modernist form. 

Condition: Excellent. No chips or cracks.
