Japanese Contemporary Black Red Gold Platinum Porcelain Charger by Master Artist

About the Item

Exquisite Japanese contemporary decorative porcelain charger featuring high purity platinum and gold foils plus silver foils tinted in shades of blue, green and mixtures of different colors, meticulously positioned using lacquer as an adhesive and sealed to the vase in a low-temperature firing process. The combination of so many different colors and shades expressed on a mat black background creates an unpredictable and ever shifting display of light and color. This is a signed masterpiece by third generation award-winning master porcelain artist from the Imari-Arita region of Japan who is the descendant of an extended family of prolific porcelain and ceramic artists. The artist's profile is available upon request. The three generations of porcelain artists 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 high purity gold, platinum and silver foils to create a shimmering palette of light and color. 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. To create a stunning interpretation of two soldiers derived from Greek mythology, the artist has used platinum and gold foils, and silver based foils for expressing various shades of blue, green and red and combinations of different colors, This striking decorative charger comes in a custom made wooden case signed by the artist. Dimensions: D 12 in, H 2.5 in.
