NAMIKAWA SOSUKE (1847-1910) AFTER A DESIGN BY WATANABE SEITEI (1851-1918)A Cloisonné-Enamel Rounded Rectangular Tray Meiji era (1868-1912), late 19th/early 20th centuryFinely worked in predominantly musen (wireless) with details of gold and silver wire with a painterly design of a standing white cockerel and a yellow chick, the eyes and wattles of the cockerel subtly highlighted in gold wire, the details on its feet outlined in silver wire, on a ground of pale grey rising to light blue within a shakudo rim, signed on the right corner Seitei and sealed, the reverse worked in gilt wire and enamels with numerous densely patterned cherry blossoms in pale brown on a dark plum-coloured ground; signed in silver wire with a single character Sakigake (the seal of Namikawa Sosuke). 25.5cm x 30.5cm (10in x 12in).Footnotes:One of the greatest craft entrepreneurs of the later Meiji era, Namikawa Sosuke was until recently best known in Japan for a set of 32 decorative panels commissioned for Tokyo's Akasaka Rikyu Palace, completed in 1909. These date from the last years of his very productive life, nearly three decades after he began to experiment with the technique known as musen shippo (wireless enamelling), his most enduring contribution to an art form that developed at extraordinary speed in Japan between the mid-nineteenth century and the early years of the twentieth century. In Chinese cloisonné enamelling, the wires separating the different areas of fused and polished enamels that made up a design also served to hold the enamels in place during the firing process, and the individual areas of colour were relatively small. Sosuke, followed shortly after by his rivals, managed to improve the chemistry of the enamels so that they adhered more securely to the metal bases of his wares, allowing him to introduce large areas of colour into his designs, although it is thought that wires between different colours still had to be painstakingly applied and removed at each stage of manufacture. Thanks to these and other technical breakthroughs, later Meiji-era enamellers were often able to emulate the effects of brush painting on paper or silk. In recognition of his achievements, in 1896 Sosuke was appointed to the order of Teishitsu Gigeiin (Artist-Craftsman to the Imperial Household).This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
