Type: Bowl
Material: Ceramic Pottery
Age: Edo Period (1603-1868)
Origin/Maker: Style of Ogata Kenzan, Kyoto ware, Japan. Maker's mark on base for Ogata Kenzan, but his style was much copied even when he was alive, and for long afterwards, so even though it's an old piece it's still likely not by him. I checked my four Kenzan books and didn't find anything similar. From wikipedia:
Ogata Kenzan (尾形 乾山, 1663–1743), originally Ogata Shinsei (尾形 深省), and also known by the pseudonym Shisui, was a Japanese potter and painter.
Ogata Kenzan was born in Kyoto into a rich merchant family. His older brother was the painter Ogata Kōrin (1658–1716). Kenzan studied with the potter Nonomura Ninsei and made his own kiln. In 1712 a nobleman began patronizing his kiln, he moved to the east area of Kyoto. He was one of the greatest ceramicists of the Tokugawa era. He is associated with Kyō ware. In 1713, he moved to Edo where he also spent the rest of his life.
Ogata Kenzan produced a distinctive style of freely brushed grasses, blossoms, and birds as decorative motifs for pottery. His pieces were noted for their perfect relation between design and shape. He often collaborated on the decoration of pottery with his older brother, Ogata Kōrin, after whom the style known as Rinpa was named.
