Tenmoku Yōhen Gourd Vase by Kamada Kōji

Description

Here, Kamada Kōji shows his masterful forming and glazing skill in this stunning gourd shaped vase.  It is done in a glaze derived from his signature ginshō tenmoku.  Heat variations inside the kiln create undulations of brushed metal and incidental hints of burgundy.

The vase can accommodate small flower arrangements but commands equal attention all on its own.  It makes the ideal centerpiece for any Japanese-influenced interior or modern décor.

Kamada Kōji's tenmoku works are held in private collections around the world and, in 2005, were acquired by New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art for display in their Asian Art collection.

A wooden presentation box will be custom made to order and signed by the artist.  Delivery time for this item is 2 weeks.
