KENYA: A RARE CERAMIC-INLAID WOOD INRO DEPICTING YAMAYURI (MOUNTAIN LILY)By Ogata Kenya (1853-1923), signed Kenya 乾也Japan, Meiji period (1868-1912)Of rounded rectangular form and oval section, decorated in gold and black takamaki-e as well as inlays of glazed ceramic to depict a mountain lily (yamayuri) borne on a leafy stalk, the interior left plain, the natural wood of an attractive color and grain. The reverse signed KENYA within an inlaid green-glazed ceramic reserve.HEIGHT 8.4 cmCondition: One ceramic inlay with two small cracks with associated old repair, otherwise in very good condition with minor wear. Provenance: French private collection.Miura Kenya (1825-1889), known as Kenya I, led a versatile life: first as a maker of clay dolls, then travelling to Nagasaki in 1854 to work on the first Japanese steamboat, in 1869 producing the first Japanese bricks, and from 1875 producing pottery at the Chomeiji in Tokyo. In an inscription on one of his inro he calls himself the last pupil of Ritsuo, and he was also strongly influenced by the style of Kenzan. Ogata Kenya (1853-1923), known as Kenya II, learned the art of pottery from Kenya I. Later he was adopted into the Ogata family as Kenzan VI, in which capacity he was the master of Bernard Leach. While it is not easy to distinguish between the work of Kenya I and Kenya II, the signature and style of the present inro suggest the latter.

The Strong National Museum of Play (known as just The Strong Museum or simply the Strong) in Rochester, New York is the only collections-based museum devoted solely to the study of play.Ogawa Haritsu (formerly often referred to outside Japan by his alternative name of Ritsuo) was among the first Japanese lacquer artists to establish an independent reputation outside of the hereditary craft dynasties of Kyoto, Edo, and Kanazawa. Following an early career as a haiku poet, he is thought to have first turned his attention to lacquer design in middle age and soon attracted a wide following thanks to his novel choice of subject matter and pioneering and imaginative use of unusual materials; at some point after 1710 he was hired by Tsugaru Nobuhisa (1669-1747), lord of a domain in northern Japan, for whom he worked until 1731.In lacquer, he introduced a vocabulary of new materials not usually associated with lacquer artists such as glazed ceramic pieces, mother-of-pearl, and lead. Haritsu also mastered the technique of making lacquer surfaces appear to resemble other materials such as bronze, tile, ink sticks, and pottery, a style of decoration which became known as Haritsu saiku.Auction comparison: Compare with an lacquer and pottery-inlaid inro depicting shells and signed Ritsuo and sealed Kan, sold at Bonhams, Fine Japanese Works of Art, 13 September 2011, New York, lot 2079 (sold for 4,000 USD).
