About the Item

Exquisite Japanese contemporary decorative porcelain vase, hand painted in vivid green, blue, red and purple on a stunningly shaped body and signed by a widely acclaimed master porcelain artist of Japan’s Imari-Arita region. 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. He is the recipient of numerous awards for his exceptional porcelain work and his unique signature gold and platinum work on porcelain. The beautifully shaped body of this exquisite vase is the perfect canvas for dramatic irises in full bloom in an array of colors and their stalks reaching out yearning to get to the tip of the vase, set against a stunning green background adorned with an intricate cloud pattern. The flat stalks of the irises resemble swords symbolizing strength, and the very refreshing scent of iris is said to exterminate evil spirits, making it an auspicious plant. For centuries irises have been depicted in numerous works by Nabeshima and Koimari porcelain artists. Graceful and elegant irises continue to be a very popular pattern even in modern times. “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. This exceptional hand painted porcelain vase comes in a custom made wooden case signed by the artist. Dimensions: H 14 in D 13 in
