Qu'est-ce que le style Yoshidaya de Kutani ?

Le charme du style Yoshidaya réside dans l'utilisation de pigments translucides et d'une technique picturale délicate, ainsi que dans ses motifs raffinés.

What is Kutani Yoshidaya Style?

Le charme du Yoshidaya style réside dans l'utilisation de pigments translucides et d'un style de peinture délicat, ainsi que dans ses motifs raffinés, exécutés avec une habileté extrême. La pièce est peinte puis recouverte d'un émail jaune – le travail de pinceau élaboré et rapide apporte une légèreté à la peinture. Comparé au ko-Kutani style, caractérisé par des lignes gosu marquées (contours noirs), le Yoshidaya style se révèle plus précis et délicat.

Ko-Kutani Aote style - XVIIe siècle
Yoshidaya Style - Vers 1830

Le four Yoshidaya, où fut créé le Yoshidaya style, ouvrit dans le village de Kutani, berceau du Ko-Kutani, afin de faire revivre la porcelaine Ko-Kutani. Cependant, les pièces de style Yoshidaya ne furent pas de simples imitations, et de nombreuses œuvres originales de haute qualité artistique furent produites dans le Ko-Kutani Aote style (porcelaine à décor sur émail à dominante bleue). Les pigments utilisés dans le Yoshidaya style sont plus sobres et austères que ceux du Ko-Kutani, et l'équilibre de chaque couleur s'harmonise bien.


De plus, le motif tissé est recouvert de Nanako Komon (fines formes rondes) et de points, qui complètent le motif principal. Bien que l'utilisation de motifs ronds et de points diffère d'une pièce à l'autre, on dit que les peindre dans les espaces vides crée une profondeur dans le dessin. Les motifs principaux varient : fleurs, oiseaux, paysages, personnages ou motifs teints – captivant l'esprit du spectateur.

Le four Yoshidaya (1824-31) et Toyoda Den-emon

Le four Yoshidaya fut construit en 1824 à côté du four Kutani dans le village de Kutani par Toyoda Den-emon. Il était un riche marchand du clan Daishoji et un homme de grande culture. Dans ses dernières années, il prit sa retraite et se consacra à la poterie. À l'âge de 72 ans, Toyoda décida de recréer la porcelaine Ko-Kutani et ouvrit un four dans le village de Kutani avec ses propres fonds. Bien qu'il sût qu'ouvrir un four dans le village de Kutani, situé au fond des montagnes et difficile d'accès, ne serait pas rentable, il osa prendre le risque. C'était parce qu'il voulait démontrer sa volonté forte de reproduire la porcelaine Kutani en construisant le four Yoshidaya à côté du four Kutani dans le village.


Les œuvres de style Yoshidaya furent bien accueillies par les aristocrates et les intellectuels de l'époque pour leur qualité artistique qui se rapprochait de celle de la porcelaine Ko-Kutani. Cependant, la recherche de la qualité sans considération de rentabilité fit souffrir l'activité du four Yoshidaya, et bien que le four fût déplacé dans la ville de Yamashiro, où le transport était plus pratique, il ferma malheureusement après environ sept ans en 1831.

La vaisselle de style Yoshidaya possède une présence forte sur la table et s'accorde bien avec des arrangements simples. Veuillez cliquer sur la bannière ci-dessous pour découvrir nos articles de style Yoshidaya.

    Please forgive this old man. I revised my post, and thank you again for your time!
    Thank you for your help!🥰🤗🖖
    My son purchased for my birthday an old Kutani jar, or vase if you prefer. It seems to be a masterpiece. It has the five colors, with the red being a sort of flat non glassy enamel! It has the green kukufuku mark on the bottom. It is made of stoneware that is so heavy it feels like it is filled with sand, and it is empty. 9” tall, and no chips, or cracks. I would like a positive date of manufacture, and place of manufacture. I just read an article that seems to identify that no over glaze was found in shards at the old Kutani kiln site. Plus point’s out that all old Kutani that is surviving is Arita manufactured. This has my head spinning 😵‍💫. Back to my vase. It seems to be very rare thing.
    Forgive me my ignorance. It seems to be in a Aote style of the Edo period. It is not flowers, birds, trees, or people! 🤔 It has a large, and long three clawed Japanese dragon floating all around the entire jar, through a yellow background of vortex interlocking pattern. The dragon has red fire flying off the body, and a red tongue. Smiling like a Korean dragon. There are what appears to be clouds of every combination of the classic colors except red. There are a number of sunburst, or flaming pearl with the same varying combinations purple, light green, and dark blue, and black. No single one is the same. Nothing boring about this jar. The color slaps you in the face. 😁 The dragon also floats above a dark blue water, that is jumping up from the bottom, boiling like a storm, with black line decoration through it. Last it has a vary pleasurable ice crackle through out the jar in every color except red. I have search everywhere for another KoKutni like this, and have found non. It seem to have a white under glaze on the inside. It has a three-de magical effect to it. Every part of the jar is covered in enamel except the foot. If you would like photos please send me email link to send them.
    Thank you for your time!
