Product Code: KPCE31
Simply put, POA stands for “Price on Application”.
With some of our pieces, we prefer not to openly publish our asking price. We absolutely welcome visitors to the website to contact us to enquire about the cost of such pieces.
We just prefer to have a conversation to allow us to explain the pricing as well as to talk in more detail about the piece in question.
It doesn’t necessarily mean that it is a super expensive piece but it may just be that there is something unique or special that we would like to be able to tell you about in more detail.

A majestic Japanese Satsuma dish by Kinkozan, painted by Seishu and dating from the Meiji-Period, (1868-1912). The scene, showing the Shogunal procession to the Nikko Toshogu Shrine, is framed by a stunning cobalt blue and Gold border decorated with miniature, intricately painted butterflies and flowers.
Interestingly, we had the text inscribed on the fan (on the reverse of the plate) and it reads:
“This work is crafted with supreme precision and detail, while the craftsmanship in gold gilding demanded the utmost attention. After several failed attempts at firing in the kiln, the workshop has for the first time succeeded in creating this work, with a glistening finish to appreciate and admire. Kinkozan”
Don’t hesitate to contact us for more information.

Kinkozan
The Kinkozan dynasty were by far the biggest producers of export satsuma ware, they were active from 1645-1927 and exported heavily to America. Their factories produced a wide range of products and worked extensively with some of the best artists of the day.
