Rare Japanese Ginbari Cloisonne Vase Irises by Kumeno Teitaro 19th Century

About the Item

A rare early Ginbari cloisonne work by renowned Meiji master Kumeno Teitaro. In high-shouldered ovoid form with six lobes in the body, which forms the shape of a sakura - cherry blossom. Symbols of purity and hope, a stand of purple and white bearded irises with blue water hyacinth and foliage, are intricately made in hair-fine silver wires and sculpted silver foils which mimic the texture of natural petals and leaves. Masterful application of beautiful, realistic colors make them come alive. Set against a background of turquoise enamel at the neck of the vase smoothly transiting to a soft silver blue at its base, all depicting a field of chamomiles. Both the brass upper rim and base plate have a wonderful antique patina and show remnants of silver gilt, with the artist's sakura stamp - Ku Mé. Kumeno Teitaro, Nagoya (1861-1939) was well-known for his Ginbari enamels. He opened his own studio in 1882 and exhibited at many national and international exhibitions including Nuremberg 1885, Paris 1889 (where he was awarded a silver medal) and Chicago 1893. At St Louis 1904 he was awarded a ‘grand prize’ and a gold medal at Liège in 1905.
