A set of five Kosobe-yaki pottery plates decorated with plum blossoms, harbinger of Spring. Each is 12 cm (5 inches) diameter and in excellent condition, dating from the century and stamped Kosobe on the base.
The potter who founded Kosobe ware, Shinpei Igarashi, is said to have trained in Kyoto. He opened a kiln in Kosobe Town, Takatsuki City, during the Kansei era (1779-1801), and the operation continued for about 120 years until the fourth generation, Nobuhira. During this period, a variety of products, ranging from tea utensils to everyday household items, were produced for the surrounding areas, and sometimes orders were fulfilled for restaurants in Osaka and Kyoto. The rustic design of Kosobe ware is still widely appreciated by ceramic researchers and collectors today
