Shinemon Kiln Blue-and-White Floral Pattern Flower Vase by the First Shinemon - Arita Ware

Sale price¥1,052,000

A Masterpiece Beyond Tradition
This is a masterpiece by the first Shinemon, an associate member of the Nitten, Japan’s largest art exhibition, who pursued a new style of Arita ware that honored tradition but was not bound by it. His distinctive style, both bold and delicate, was developed after establishing his own kiln in Arita, Saga, influencing not only contemporary Arita ware but the ceramics world at large.

The Vitality of Nature Captured in Blue
The "Sometsuke Sōka-mon (Flowers and Grasses) Vase," specially secured by JTOPIA, is a grand piece adorned with bold, indigo brushwork in shades of blue glaze. The flowing momentum of the blue glaze and the subtle yet dynamic flower motifs lend the vase an air of elegance and radiance. The expression of the natural flow of plants, the vitality of each stem and petal, is so vivid that one can almost feel the movement of nature and life in this work.

A Unique Harmony of Blue and White
This piece elevates the tradition of Arita ware through the unique beauty created by the blend of blue and white. The delicate underglaze patterns on the pure white porcelain respect Arita's heritage while showcasing the first Shinemon's dynamic and powerful style, expressed through the vibrant life force of the flowers.

A Masterpiece That Transforms Your Space
This piece will transform any space into one of refined elegance, exuding a dignified presence. A one-of-a-kind work by the first Shinemon, it is of a quality worthy of a museum collection, and pieces of this class are very rarely offered. Don’t miss the chance to own this renowned work by a master who has left an indelible mark on the ceramics world.
