Large Red Gold Platinum Porcelain Charger by Contemporay Japanese Master Artist

About the Item

Extraordinary large Japanese contemporary decorative porcelain charger entitled "sunset". It features a dramatic sunset scene with a striking hawk in extremely detailed platinum and gold body flighing towards the sun that appears in gold, on a striking crimson/pink background, boasting high purity platinum and gold foils plus silver foils tinted in shades of red, meticulously positioned using lacquer as an adhesive and sealed to the vase in a low-temperature firing process. This is a masterpiece by a third generation master of a kiln located in the Imari-Arita region of southern Japan who is the descendant of an extended family of prolific porcelain and ceramic artists. In this piece the artist has used platinum and gold foils, and silver based foils for expressing various shades of red, to create a mesmerizing patterns and colors in this breathtaking masterpiece. 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. 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 large striking porcelain charger comes in a custom made wooden case signed by the artist. Dimensions: D 15.5 in, D 2 in.
