About the Item
Rare Japanese Ando Jubei Cloisonné Enamel Set of Seven Sashimi Plates / Dishes with Original Fitted Wooden Case, Circa 1930–1940
A rare and complete set of Seven Japanese cloisonné enamel sashimi plates by Ando Jubei (1876–1953), dating to the 1930s–1940s, each signed with the Ando mark to the reverse, preserved in their original fitted wooden case with blue velvet lining.
The set consists of six small trays and one larger serving tray, all decorated with bold stylized leaf motifs in red, gold, yellow, and grey enamels outlined in fine silver wire against a luminous white ground. The restrained palette and modernist curves of the designs reflect the evolution of Ando’s workshop during the early Shōwa period, when traditional cloisonné techniques were adapted to suit Art Deco and modern aesthetics. The combination of organic form and rhythmic linear decoration creates a sense of both elegance and dynamism.
Each piece bears the Ando workshop mark to the underside, confirming their authenticity and origin from Japan’s most prestigious cloisonné firm. The trays fit neatly into the original three-drawer wooden case, lined with deep blue velvet compartments, designed for both storage and presentation.
Ando Jubei was the most celebrated cloisonné master of the early twentieth century, appointed purveyor to the Imperial Household and widely recognized at international expositions. By the 1930s, his workshop was producing modern, export-oriented luxury items such as this set, bridging Japanese craftsmanship with contemporary global taste.
Sets of cloisonné dishes are exceedingly rare, particularly when complete, signed, and preserved in their original fitted cases. This example demonstrates the refinement, adaptability, and enduring prestige of the Ando firm in the first half of the twentieth century.
A museum-quality survival — elegant, modern, and rare — by one of Japan’s greatest cloisonné houses.
