Japanese Contemporary Gold Leaf Purple Green Porcelain Charger by Master Artist

About the Item

Extraordinary Japanese contemporary museum quality decorative porcelain charger breathtakingly hand painted in a stunning iris motif in vivid purple/blue, white and green on a magnificent gold leaf background. This is a signed masterpiece by a third generation master porcelain artist who is the descendant of an extended family of prolific porcelain and ceramic artists. The three generations of the Kosan Kiln located in the Imari-Arita region of southern Japan (starting in 19th century,) have been experimenting and perfecting techniques featuring gold foil for seven decades. His profile is available upon request. 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. This exquisite porcelain charger comes in a custom made wooden case signed by the artist. Dimensions: D 15.5 in H 2 in.
