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

About the Item

Extraordinary Japanese contemporary decorative porcelain vase, stunningly gilded and intricately hand-painted in blue, green and red on a elegantly shaped body, featuring a mesmerizing combination of polychrome overglaze and extensive gilding. It is a signed masterpiece by highly acclaimed award-winning master porcelain artist who is widely recognized for his signature techniques for the application of gold and platinum to porcelain. 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. The artist's profile is available upon request. This unique piece has an extended asymmetric panel with elegant scalloped rims depicting birds resting and flying over an old wooden bridge constructed in the classical Japanese style. The delicate branches of weeping willow trees hand over the bridge, and cherry blossoms in full bloom represented in orange and gold decorate the tapered neck of this attractive vase. Intricate dot pattern done in pure white set against a dramatic gold background accentuates the golden “clouds” that surround the panel. "Fired-on gold," his 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. This magnificent large decorative porcelain vase comes in a custom-made wooden case signed by the artist. Dimensions: H 17 in D 11 in
