Vintage Octagonal Bowl (Taisho–Early Showa Period) | Japanese Vintage
Online Exclusive
A vintage Japanese porcelain bowl dating from the Taisho era to pre-war Showa period (circa 1912–1940s). With its striking octagonal shape and hand-painted geometric design in cobalt blue, it carries the quiet refinement of early 20th-century Japanese craftsmanship.
Its size makes it perfect for small servings—whether rice, side dishes, pickles, or desserts—and it also stands beautifully on its own as a display piece.
Each bowl is hand-painted, and the brushwork of the lines varies naturally, giving every piece its own character and charm. Designs are sent at random, making each bowl one of a kind.
Sourced from antique markets in Japan, this piece brings cultural history and timeless design into your home.
