Gold Radiance Kogo Incense Box

Angebot$837.00 USD

Beschreibung

The striking contrast between gold and black lends the kogo (incense container) an air of chic sophistication and quiet strength. Geometric patterns in gold and platinum glint across the surface, enriching its modern elegance. On the underside of the container, delicate geometric motifs mirror the design found on the lid’s exterior. Inside the lid, a flower-like motif outlined in raised gold introduces a subtle note of grace. These intricate strokes and layered compositions create a visual rhythm that evokes the mesmerizing depth of a kaleidoscope.

At the heart of this piece lies the artist’s signature technique: kin-hakukin-saibyo (fine gold and platinum painting). The process begins with ultra-fine lines drawn in black gosu, a deep-hued pigment. Next comes shiromori, a raised white enamel, followed by successive layers of gold and platinum. This multilayered method gives the patterns texture and shine, enhancing their dimensionality and brilliance.

The initial design is gently transferred onto the vessel using chikushi, a soft tracing paper.  Rather than adhering to a rigid layout, the artist allows the composition to evolve naturally throughout the process. As the work takes shape, lines are adjusted and refined in response to the emerging balance and rhythm of the piece. This fluid, intuitive approach breathes vitality into the design, giving the finished work a sense of organic movement and living presence.

When closed, the patterns on the lid and body align with precision, a refined testament to the artist’s meticulous planning. From every angle, the piece expresses a harmonious aesthetic sensibility.
