Product description
Superb box, relatively imposing, in handmade raku ceramic signed under the base, signature to be identified, dated 96, vintage. Triangular base, with 3 high sides, ceramic with a "layered", sculptural and brutalist, Japanese look. High rectangular sides, on 2 small feet, smooth with incised geometric motifs in the center. Beautiful enamel in shades of dark blue, grey-green and a touch of turquoise... And with a beautiful light petroleum sheen (multicolored iridescence). Rough, laminated corners in shades of gray and anthracite. Lid composed of 6 pyramid-shaped plates, still "laminated", in shades more turquoise than the body of the box, gray and blue edges, with a few discreet touches of gold, neutral luster. Partially enameled interior on top. Approx. 23cm total height with lid, 19cm without. 13.5-14cm square. Very good overall condition, with a few very slight traces of age, notably on the rims, and a few very small, unobtrusive knocks. Approx. 1,800-2kg. Very beautiful piece, reminiscent of a building or temple.
