-----------------------
This elegant crane-neck vase features vibrant bamboo and charming sparrows set against a brilliant background of gold decoration. Bamboo grows straight and strong and retains its green leaves even through winter. For this reason, it has long been cherished in Japan as an auspicious motif symbolizing vitality, resilience, and prosperity.
Deep green bamboo and indigo-toned leaves spread gracefully across the surface, while sparrows play among the branches, bringing a lively sense of movement to the scene.
The radiant gold decoration, delicate painting, and slender crane-neck form harmonize beautifully, creating a work that combines splendor with refined elegance.

 Porcelain production started in Japan in the 17th century after kaorin stone was discovered in Arita. From the middle 17th century, large amounts of Arita ceramics, which captivated the European royalty and nobility, were exported to Europe, through the Dutch trading post on Dejima Island in Nagasaki. Augustus the Strong, Elector of Saxony, was so fond of Arita ceramics that he ordered porcelain resembling Arita ceramics to be made in his electorate. In Arita, the tradition and techniques of Arita ceramics have been preserved for over 400 years, while young potters and workshops take on the callenge of producing ambitious new works. |
