Through constant experimentation, Kamada Kōji has elevated tenmoku, a technique originating in China during the Song dynasty, to an even higher level of refinement with the introduction of several signature glazes, each one adding another facet to the diversity of his art.

This gourd shaped vase is done in two variations of the artist's signature ginsho tenmoku glaze.  Together they give the piece a contemporary, dichromatic quality:  a feathered, silvery blue on the upper bulb and a matte grey with hints of brown on the lower.  Golden highlights around the rim and low-relief lines add a sense of refined luxury.

The ideal centerpiece for any Japanese-inspired interior or modern decor.

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.  See his Osaka Exhibition for more works from his 2011 exhibition.

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