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

About the Item

Mesmerizing Japanese contemporary porcelain decorative vase hand-painted on a beautifully shaped body, depicting plum blossom in red and medieval palaces in shades of blue and details in gold, a signed masterpiece by highly acclaimed Japanese master porcelain artist in Imari-Arita tradition of Japan, and recipient of numerous awards for his exceptional porcelain work and his unique gold and platinum work on 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. Two paths encircle the vase starting at the base and rising toward the neck. The paths take the traveler through plum orchards in full bloom and past multi-tiered palaces surrounded by a dense field of red blossoms that cover the entire body. It has been a beloved motif for centuries being used by artists in their paintings and on porcelain. "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 five-ten firings. The artist's profile is available upon request. This striking hand-painted porcelain vase comes in a custom-made wooden case signed by the artist. Dimensions: H 6 in D 7 in
