Contemporary Japanese Cloissoné Copper Vessel Shippo Vase 2 by Yochiya Studio

About the Item

Yochiya explore the untapped possibilities of cloisonné by combining improvisational and serendipitous modern techniques such as welding and hydraulic pressure, rather than relying solely on traditional techniques. Sculpting as if drawing, and embracing the accidental moments that arise, led to many fascinating discoveries. Cloisonné ware is a craft in which a glassy glaze is applied to silver or copper and enclosed into the small sections separated by a wire. Japanese cloisonné enamel reached a technical peak, producing items more advanced than any that had existed before. In Japan cloisonné enamels are known as shippō-yaki Using this craft Yochiya present the Shippo vases, contemporary vessels made for collectible design, with a leather-like look. ‘Shippo’ – means 'Seven Treasures', and refers to the Buddhist texts, where treasures include: gold, silver, emerald, coral, agate, lapis lazuli, giant clamshell, glass, and pearl. The Japanese applied this expression to the rich colours found on Chinese enamel wares and later to those they made themselves.
