Japanese Contemporary Blue White Porcelain Vase by Master Artist, 4

About the Item

Extraordinary Japanese contemporary decorative porcelain vase, intricately hand painted in a stunning blue underglaze on an elegantly shaped body, a signed piece by highly acclaimed master porcelain artist of the Imari-Arita region of Japan. In 2016, the British Museum added a work by this artist to its collection of contemporary Japanese porcelain, a large lidded jar in the Imari-Arita polychrome enamel tradition. This artist is the recipient of numerous awards for his exceptional application of gold and platinum on porcelain. His profile is available upon request. This stunning vase is the perfect canvas depicting a striking intricate karakusa pattern, auspicious arabesque pattern consisting of scrolling vines in blue, set against a white background. Karakusa (scrolling vines) is a symbol of long life and prosperity because of its uninterrupted growth. The attractive long neck and the striking scalloped flared rim and the auspicious pattern make this a magnificent piece that attracts the viewer to approach it and explore the details of this attractive vase. This stunning porcelain vase comes in a custom made wooden case signed by the artist. Dimensions: H 22 in D 10 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.
