This is an elegant Kutani ware vase decorated in the Tenmoku silver “Ren-zan” (layered mountain) style. The surface features softly flowing, layered bands in silver, gold, and deep charcoal tones, creating a refined landscape-like effect reminiscent of misty mountains and drifting clouds. The vase has a well-balanced, rounded form with a gently flared rim, giving it a strong yet graceful presence. The fine matte texture combined with metallic silver and gold hues produces a sophisticated depth that changes beautifully depending on the light and viewing angle. The piece comes with its original wooden storage box (tomobako), confirming it was intended as a high-quality decorative or collector’s item. The base bears a red seal mark, indicating the workshop or artist associated with the piece. Overall, this is a striking example of modern Kutani decorative ceramics, suitable for both traditional Japanese interiors and contemporary spaces. Artist / Maker Information This vase is attributed to Kutani ware and marked with a red seal that appears to read “Getsugedō” (閏月堂, attribution uncertain). Kutani ware is a famous Japanese ceramic tradition from Ishikawa Prefecture, known for its rich colors, innovative decorative techniques, and high artistic standards. Works in Tenmoku silver-style decoration are particularly valued for their refined firing techniques and the subtle gradation of metallic tones, requiring advanced kiln control and skilled craftsmanship. Pieces like this are often produced by specialized studios or artists working within the Kutani tradition. Size Approx. H 24 × W 20 × D 20 cm Weight approx. 1,695 g Box (paper): 2650 g, approx.
