"Poetry in Seasonal Colors: The Polychrome Art of Yoshiaki Yamada"
Yoshiaki Yamada, a leading figure in the modern interpretation of the classic Kutani painting style, reflects the serene beauty of nature through the lens of the four seasons. Expanding on the traditional Kutani Gosai (five colors), he has developed a fresh and vibrant palette, paired with intricate, meticulously detailed brushwork. His works, which have often been honored with purchases by the Imperial Household Agency, are highly acclaimed. From vases to slab plates, Yamada’s commitment to form and his refined sense of elegance shine through in each masterpiece.
I couldn't be happier with this Kutani ware incense burner. The decoration is just beautiful. The store were very quick to process and ship my order - I'd happily buy from them again.
I was so pleased with the beautiful craftsmanship of this delicate bowl, and the way it came wrapped in a wooden box tied up in cloth. Exceptional experience.
