Description

Beautiful, unique and unusual - Made in Japan Collectible Lusterware Bowl with an applied bug - looks like some sort of grasshopper or locust?
The bowl measures approximately  5 1/4" across and about 3" High. The (hand painted?) scene on the front is of a lake with a swan swimming in it with trees and land in the background - the sky is red, as if the sun is rising or setting. The top rim is gold or peach luster with the bug done in gold/peach and blue luster. The interior is white glazed. Three small curved feet at the base. Marked on the bottom with "Made in Japan" with green logo. The maker's mark is #26 in Carole Bess White's Made in Japan Collectors Guide Vol III - which is for Nippon Toki Kasha (Noritake Co., Ltd) and dates from 1924.
