YAMAGUCHI SHUNSAI: A LACQUER 'LEAFY GOURD' KOGO

Item Details

Description

YAMAGUCHI SHUNSAI: A LACQUER KOGO (INCENSE BOX) AND COVER WITH A LEAFY GOURD
By Yamaguchi Shunsai (1895-1981), signed Shunsai saku
Japan, 20th century

Of circular indented form, the reddish ground highlighting the beautiful grain of the wood and superbly decorated in iro-e takamaki-e and gold hiramaki-e with a small gourd and a large decaying leaf, the veined leaf further with black and silvery-gray lacquer simulating rusted metal. The interior of roiro. The underside with the signature SHUNSAI saku [made by Shunsai].

DIAMETER 7.8 cm

Condition: Excellent condition with minor wear and some light surface scratches, particularly to the underside.
Provenance: British private collection.

Yamaguchi Shunsai (1895-1981) was a student of Ikeda Taishin (1825-1903), who in turn was a notable student of Shibata Zeshin (1807-1891). Shunsai would also sometimes use the name (or seal) Koma, which was the name of the workshop inherited by Zeshin in 1835 after his master Koma Kansai died. The splendid lacquer and use of metal imitation lacquer techniques, which were pioneered by Zeshin, seen in this kogo surely indicate this great master's influence.

With an inscribed wood tomobako (storage box).
