<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Couch Potato Wannabe, post: 1835565, member: 14066&quot;]Very similar in style to the blue and white Japanese porcelain lidded rice bowls.</p><p>Sometsuke </p><p>&quot;<i>Sometsuke</i> is a type of blue-and-white porcelain-ware that was produced during early 17th century in privately owned kilns in Jingdezhen a town in Jiangxi Province, China. <i>Ko-sometsuke</i> the prefix <i>&#039;Ko&#039;</i> meaning &#039;old&#039;, is the Japanese name for <i>Sometsuke</i> imported from China to Japan. Though <i>sometsuke</i> was not made using high quality clay or glazes, the free-spirited decorations and designs made it popular in Japan. They were particularly sought after by tea-ceremony masters to be used as utensils.
