Japanese Contemporary Green Gold Blue Porcelain Vase by Master Artist

About the Item

Japanese contemporary decorative porcelain vase, intricately hand painted in green on a beautiful bottle shape body, a signed work by highly acclaimed master porcelain artist of the Imari-Arita region of Japan and the recipient of numerous awards for his exceptional application of gold and platinum on porcelain. In 2016, the British Museum added a work by this artist to its collection of contemporary Japanese porcelain, a large lidded jar in the Imari-Arita polychrome enamel tradition. This vase is the perfect canvas depicting a stunning karakusa pattern, the auspicious arabesque pattern consisting of scrolling vines and foliage in green, set against a deep blue background. Kurakusa (scrolling vines) is a symbol of long life and prosperity because of its uninterrupted growth. Another scrolling pattern with delicate chrysanthemums in yellow and purple bring another layer of excitement to this piece. Chrysanthemums are said to be the emblems of emperors. They come in different colors, sizes and frangrances. The end result is an entertaining piece that attracts the viewer to turn it around and explore the whole surface of this attractive vase. “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 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 5-10 firings. This stunning porcelain vase comes in a custom made wooden case signed by the artist. Dimensions: H 6 in D 5.5 in.
