Japanese Contemporary Red Silver Etched Porcelain Vase by Master Artist

About the Item

Mesmerizing tall museum-quality porcelain vase in a stunning shape, a signed masterpiece by highly acclaimed award-winning master porcelain artist, with dramatic etchings featuring a patchwork of silver foils tinted in five shades of red, meticulously positioned using lacquer as an adhesive and sealed to the vase in a low-temperature firing process. The combination of five shades of red expressed on a complicatedly etched surface creates an unpredictable and every shifting display of light and color. The three generations of master artists located in the Imari-Arita region of Japan have been experimenting and perfecting techniques featuring gold foil for seven decades. Inspired by centuries-old kinrande (gold enameled porcelain) styles of Imari, the artists have developed a technique known as haku-yui (braided foils) that combines gold, platinum and silver foils to create a shimmering palette of light and color. The artist's profile is available upon request. Silver foil is used exclusively as a substrate for expressing a wide spectrum of vivid colors. Foils of differing material and color are applied separately and at the rate of “one shade per day” in a process reminiscent of multi-color woodblock printing, implying that the addition of each new shade exponentially increases the time and complexity of production. This striking porcelain decorative vase comes in a custom made wooden case signed by the artist. Dimensions: H 12 in, D 6 in.
