Japanese Contemporary Pink Cream Gold Platinum Porcelain Vase by Master Artis

About the Item

Exquisite museum quality signed Japanese contemporary porcelain vase, a masterpiece by highly celebrated award-winning third-generation porcelain artist of the Kutani region of Japan featuring a cascade of cherry blossoms rendered in pure gold gracefully hanging, on a mesmerizing cream and pink background. The same pattern continues to decorate the inside of this magnificent vase. To express the signature cherry blossoms, the artist grinds pure gold and platinum foils into powder form, which is then delicately applied to the vase to create raised patterns against the backdrop. The artist's is the recipient of numerous prestigious awards for his extraordinary work and his unique contributions to the centuries old "chibu" porcelain art. His profile is available upon request. The tiny white dots that accentuate the backdrop are referred to as “chibu” in a beloved traditional Kutani porcelain art and represent the signature style of the artist and his forbearers. First developed in the early years of the 19th century, the “chibu” technique tasks the artist with painstakingly creating patterns with minute raised pigmented drops of equal size placed at precise intervals to generate a highly textured and mesmerizing field of raised dots. The dots are most frequently done in a bluish-green hue as in the piece, but also in white and gold.  This extraordinary Kutani porcelain vase comes in a beautiful custom-made paulownia wood case signed by the artist. Dimensions: H 15.5 in D 7 in

Japanese Contemporary Blue Pink Platinum Porcelain Vase by Master Artist, 6
Located in Takarazuka, JP
Exquisite contemporary Japanese dimpled decorative porcelain vase, hand painted in vivid blue, green and pink on an elegantly shaped porcelain body against a striking platinum background, a signed piece by highly acclaimed award-winning Japanese master porcelain artist in the Imari-Arita tradition. 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. The artist is the recipient of numerous awards for his exceptional porcelain work and his unique signature gold and platinum work on porcelain. This elegant vase is the perfect canvas for a stunning floral pattern, set against a dimpled platinum background. The artist continues the platinum work to decorate the inside of this magnificent 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. “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 stunning decorative porcelain vase showcases elegant Japanese toad...
