中國 唐代・8世紀

陶器(水注)

高14.3公分,底徑5.5公分;(托盤)高2.3公分,徑11.5公分,底徑8.1公分

東京國立博物館藏(廣田松繁舊藏)


此件水注為唐代三彩之作品,施以罕見的藍釉,形制小巧,應為模擬實用酒器之明器或玩具之類。其口沿呈花瓣狀,俗稱「弁口」,可見以手指捏製成形的痕跡,透露出工匠即興而率真的造形趣味。


儘管尺寸不大,卻氣質清雅、意趣盎然,為廣田松繁所蒐藏小品中的上乘佳作,亦體現唐代三彩藝術中的非典型類型與生活化表現。

Blue-Glazed Sancai Ewer with Petal-Shaped Spout

China, Tang Dynasty, 8th century

Earthenware(Ewer)

Height: 14.3 cm, Base diameter: 5.5 cm; (Tray) Height: 2.3 cm, Diameter: 11.5 cm, Base diameter: 8.1 cm

Collection of the Tokyo National Museum (formerly Hirota Matsushige Collection)


This piece is a rare example of a Tang sancai ware ewer covered in blue glaze. Modestly scaled, it may have been produced as a burial item (mingqi) modeled after a wine vessel, or possibly as a toy or decorative object. The spout, shaped like a flower petal—referred to in Japanese as benkō—bears the impression of being pinched into form by hand, capturing a spontaneous charm.


Despite its diminutive size, the piece conveys a refined and refreshing aesthetic. It stands out as a superb small-scale work from the renowned Hirota Collection, and represents an atypical yet delightfully vivid facet of Tang sancai ceramic art.

解説


唐三彩には墓に納める明器のほか、日常にもちいる器や玩具などもみられます。本作は酒器のミニチュアでしょうか。花びらを表わした口、いわゆる弁口は指でつまんで形つくった跡が残ります。小品ながら清々しく、愛らしい広田コレクションの優品です。
