Edo Period, Genroku Era (1688–1704)

D11.5cm×10.7cm　H11cm

 

This refined Ko-Imari incense burner from the Genroku era (1688–1704) is a remarkable example of early Edo-period porcelain craftsmanship. The outer structure is adorned with intricate hexagonal openwork and features overglaze enamel paintings of pine trees—symbols of longevity and prosperity in Japanese culture. Inside sits an integrated base and container for incense, forming a two-part composition that emphasizes both function and beauty. The harmonious combination of precise technique and elegant design makes this a rare and highly collectible piece.
