Japanese Contemporary Blue Purple Orange Porcelain Charger by Master Artist, 3

About the Item

Exuisite Japanese contemporary decorative square porcelain charger, hand painted in vivid purple, yellow, orange and blue, and signed by a widely acclaimed master porcelain artist of Japan’s Imari-Arita region. He is the recipient of numerous awards for his exceptional porcelain work and his unique signature gold and platinum work on porcelain. 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. This elegant charger in textured midnight blue background is the perfect canvas for dramatic auspicious orchids in full bloom and their stalks reaching out yearning to get to the tip top. The flat stalks of the orchids resemble swords symbolizing strength. For centuries orchids 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 stunning hand painted porcelain charger comes in a custom made wooden case signed by the artist. Dimensions: D 8 in W 8 in H 2 in.

    Located in Atlanta, GA
    On offer is a truly impressive blue and white porcelain plate of Hizen ware, from Arita in Japan, circa mid to late-19th century. The plate was made by Kajiwara Kikujiro (菊次郎, the second Kiku son) and/or Kajiwara Kikusaburo (菊三郎, the third Kiku son who died in 1883) of the Kajiware Family Kiln of in Arita.
