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. See Earle, Joe [ed.] (1995) The Index of Inro Artists, p. 125.
