Japanese Contemporary Blue Platinum Porcelain Vase by Master Artist, 2
About the Item
Exceptional very tall Japanese contemporary museum quality porcelain vase with mysterious etchings in stunning detail featuring platinum foils, plus silver based foils for expressing various shades of blue, meticulously positioned using lacquer as an adhesive and sealed to the vase in a low-temperature firing process. The combination of platinum and these shades of blue expressed on a complicatedly etched surface creates an unpredictable and ever shifting display of light and color.
The three generations of the Kosan Kiln located in the Imari-Arita region of southern Japan have been experimenting and perfecting techniques featuring gold foil for seven decades. Inspired by centuries-old kinrande (gold enameled porcelain) styles of Imari, the artists have developed a technique known as haku-
yui (braided foils) that combines gold, platinum and silver foils to create a shimmering palette of light and color. Silver foil is used exclusively as a substrate for expressing a wide spectrum of vivid colors. Foils of differing material and color are applied separately and at the rate of “one shade per day” in a process reminiscent of multi-color woodblock printing, implying that the addition of each new shade exponentially increases the time and complexity of production.
The kiln started in the 19th century with traditional kinrande techniques (gold enameled porcelain), but in accordance with the philosophy of the kiln’s founder, each subsequent generation pioneered in a field of the master’s choosing. Thus, the second generation is known for its yuri-kinsai (gold foil underglaze) and the third generation for its haku-yui (intertwining of precious-metal foils). The artist's profile is available upon request.
Yuri-kinsai was termed in the 1950s as a new glazing technique. The main feature is a highly transparent overglaze on the gilded porcelain, cutting out stencils of gold foil for underglaze decorations.
This superb decorative vase comes in a custom made wooden case signed by the artist.
