Japanese Contemporary Green Blue Platinum Porcelain Vase by Master Artist

About the Item

Exquisite Japanese contemporary decorative porcelain vase, intricately hand-painted in platinum, and vivid green and blue, on an elegant cylinder shape body with a sophisticated scalloped rim. It is a signed work by highly acclaimed master porcelain artist from the historic Imari-Arita region of Japan and recipient of numerous awards for his exceptional porcelain work and his unique 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 thr Imari-Arita polychrome enamel tradition. The artist's profile is available upon request. On the outside, an intricate seamless fish scale pattern decorate the entire body of this elegant piece. With green and blue, untamed waves representing the ephemeral nature of physical existence, a mythical bird is depicted in various stages of attachment to the physical and its struggle to arrive at ultimate detachment as it wings its flight into ethereal realm represented in shades of green and blue. The auspicious fish scale pattern symbolizes continuous waves, a wish for a steady and peaceful life and longevity. On the inside, the artist's signature platinum work decorates the entire inner surface. The contrast betweeen the inner and outer surfacwwes adds to the elegance of this unique piece. "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. Each of his work in polychrome overglaze is fired at 800 degrees, followed by his signature application of gold and platinum on many of his work, 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. This stunning large porcelain piece comes in a custom-made wooden case signed by the artist. Dimensions: H 14 in, D 8.5 in.
