Japanese Contemporary Blue Silver Etched Porcelain Vase by Master Artist

About the Item

Mesmerizing tall Japanese Contemporary museum quality decorative porcelain vase with mysterious etchings with three-dimensional effect in a stunningly elegant shape featuring silver foil tinted in five shades of blue, meticulously positioned using lacquer as an adhesive and sealed to the vase in a low-temperature firing process, a masterpiece by an award winning widely acclaimed master porcelain artist from Imari-Arita region of Japan. The combination of five shades of blue expressed on a complicatedly etched surface creates an unpredictable and ever shifting display of light and color. The three generations of master artists in the Imari-Arita region of southern Japan have been experimenting and perfecting techniques featuring gold foil for seven decades. Inspired by centuries-old kinrande (gold enameled porcelain) styles of Imari, the artists have developed a technique known as haku- yui (braided foils) that combines gold, platinum and silver foils to create a shimmering palette of light and color. The artist's profile is available upon request. Silver foil is used exclusively as a substrate for expressing a wide spectrum of vivid colors. Foils of differing material and color are applied separately and at the rate of “one shade per day” in a process reminiscent of multi-color woodblock printing, implying that the addition of each new shade exponentially increases the time and complexity of production. This exquisite porcelain vase comes in a custom-made wooden box signed by the artist. Dimensions: H 16.5 in, D 7 in.
