Japanese Blue Platinum-Gilded Porcelain Vase by Contemporary Master Artist

About the Item

Contemporary dimpled decorative porcelain vase, hand painted in blue on an elegantly shaped porcelain body against a striking platinum background, a signed piece by highly acclaimed Japanese master porcelain artist in the Imari-Arita tradition and 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 his to its collection of contemporary Japanese porcelain, a large lidded jar in the Imari-Arita polychrome enamel tradition. “Fired-on gold,” his 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 five-ten firings. This artist's profile is available upon request. This attractive decorative porcelain vase showcases playful rabbits in an attractive underglaze blue, set against a striking platinum background that elegantly combines two different styles of dimpling and crackling surface to accentuate the beauty of this unique piece. The unfired porcelain shell is impressed with hundreds of dimples, to which gold and platinum are applied at the final stage of production. The dimples are designed to accentuate the luster of the precious metals by varying the thickness of application and allowing the cratering to convey a sense of depth. This attractive porcelain vase comes in a custom-made wooden case signed by the artist. Dimensions: H 7.5 in, D 10 in.
