Japanese Contemporary Blue Gold Orange Porcelain Vase by Master Artist

About the Item

Stunning contemporary Japanese decorative porcelain vase, hand painted in vivid red, purple and blue on a beautifully shaped porcelain body, a work by widely respected Japanese master porcelain artist in Imari-Arita tradition and 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. His profile is available upon request. Wisterias have been appearing in Japanese literature and portrayed in Japanese ceramics, lacquerware and makie for centuries. Fuji Musume (Wisteria Maiden) is one of the most famous kabuki dances that centers around wisteria that symbolizes love. Wisterias are also symbols of longevity and immortality, due to their long life. This exceptional piece, a large decorative hand painted vase in a stunningly shaped body exhibits stunning wisterias in vivid red, blue and purple in full bloom, against a background of gilded dimples. 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. “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 over glaze 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. The artist's profile is available upon request. This stunningly shaped hand painted porcelain vase comes with a custom made wooden case signed by the artist. Dimensions: H 10 in D 4 in.
