About the Artwork

As dark brown is called purple in the five main colors used in Kutani ware, although this bowl is dark brown, I put "purple ground" in the name of this piece. Over the purple base, I placed silver leaf cut into parts of pansies and geometric shapes. I also added gold and platinum leaf in the background and tried to express the shine of each different color.
By using silver, gold and platinum leaf, I was able to create a piece different from those I made using only silver leaf.

Techniques : Yuri ginsai
SIlver leaf is applied on the base, glazed and baked.
