Japanese Contemporary Blue Green Gold Porcelain Vase by Master Artist, 2

About the Item

Exceptional tall Japanese contemporary decorative porcelain vase, hand painted in green and blue underglaze on a beautifully shaped body, a signed masterpiece by widely acclaimed master porcelain artist from the Imari-Arita region of Japan. This artist is the recipient of numerous prestigious awards for his exceptional porcelain work and his unique signature gold and platinum work on porcelain. In 2016, the British Museum added a work by this artist to its collection of contemporary Japanese porcelain in the Imari-Arita polychrome enamel tradition. The artist's profile is available upon request. This stunning porcelain vase serves as the perfect canvas to boast graceful cranes symbolizing longevity, grace and nobility, one of the most revered auspicious motifs in traditional Japanese art, set against a breathtaking background in green and gold. It creates a stunning contrast that invites the viewer to approach the piece to explore its details. Scalloped borders with auspicious geometric fish-scale pattern in blue and gold representing waves decorate the rim and base of this magnificent piece. This pattern conveys the wish for a long-lasting peaceful life, like the waves that are constantly repeated in the vast ocean. This exquisite porcelain vase comes in a custom made wooden case signed by the artist. Dimensions: H 23.5 in D 13 in “Fired-on gold,” the artist's signature style highlights unique techniques for incorporating gold and platinum into the hand painting and multiple firing processes that yield a stunningly opulent look. The polychrome overglaze is fired at 800 degrees, followed by the application of gold and platinum that are fired at slightly lower temperature to maintain the luster of the precious metals. As a result, a single piece may undergo as many as 5-10 firings. The vase showcases graceful cranes symbolizing longevity, one of the most revered auspicious motifs in traditional Japanese art, set against attractive clouds in red. It creates a stunning contrast that invites the viewer to approach the piece to explore its details.
