Japanese Contemporary Gold Blue Purple Red Porcelain Vase by Master Artist

About the Item

Mesmerizing Japanese contemporary very large dimpled gilded signed decorative porcelain vase, a stunning piece hand painted by highly acclaimed porcelain artist of Japan’s Imari-Arita region. The artist is the 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. The artist's profile is available upon request. This elegant vase boasts a dimpled gilded body that serves as a canvas for a scene of stunning wisterias in full bloom presented in purple, red, blue and turquoise, gracefully hanging to decorate the surface of this magnificent piece. Lovely birds are in flight above this breathtaking scene. 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 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 exquisite large gilded porcelain vase comes in a custom made wooden case signed by the artist. Dimensions: H 18.5 in D 14.5 in.
