Purple Kaleidoscope Bloom Japanese Single Flower Vase

Prix de vente$1,365.00 USD

Description

Adorned with kaleidoscopic geometric patterns, this single flower vase brings elegance and color to white porcelain. The rhombus-shaped motifs shimmer with colors that transition from purple to pink to gold, forming a soft and graceful gradient. Its slender, contoured form reveals different nuances from every angle. Though compact, it exudes a quietly striking presence.

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.

A gentle touch reveals the raised gold detailing—a tactile reminder of the craftsmanship and precision behind this time-honored technique. Its silhouette tapers gently at the top and base, expanding into a soft, rounded fullness at the center—graceful and well-balanced. The golden rim brings a gentle glow, turning the piece into a quiet expression of elegance within contemporary interiors.
