A striking and highly decorative original Japanese enamel sign, featuring bold white kanji against a rich deep cobalt-blue ground. The text reads “就業中面会謝絶.” Once purely functional, it now carries the quiet poetry of old Japan’s offices, workshops, factories, and back-of-house spaces. What makes this piece especially appealing is its powerful color harmony: the glossy, saturated blue feels vivid and architectural, while the crisp white lettering creates a dramatic contrast with unmistakable visual impact. The slightly rounded form and mounting holes at top and bottom give it an authentic, utilitarian character. With its honest wear, this sign has the atmosphere collectors love—industrial, graphic, and deeply Japanese. It displays beautifully on a wall and works wonderfully in interiors ranging from wabi-sabi and vintage décor to modern loft spaces. Similar Japanese enamel signs are actively presented by Catawiki within its Industrial Design and Advertising & Enamel Signs auctions. 【Size】 Height: 30 cm Width: 19 cm Depth: 0.5 cm 【Condition】 Very good vintage condition.
