ABOUT PRODUCTID 14019
This Japanese vase from the 1950s, crafted using the traditional lacquerware technique, features a deep, cool-toned black base finished to a high gloss, accentuating both its smooth texture and subtly modern silhouette. The reflective, lustrous surface lends the vase a sense of clarity and restraint, while the asymmetrical mother-of-pearl inlay forms delicate organic motifs that shimmer in iridescent shades of blue, green, and cream. The vessel’s classic hourglass profile, complete with a gently flared rim and foot, recalls the equilibrium and quiet elegance emblematic of both traditional Japanese design and mid-century modern experimentation. There are no visible traces of use, damage, or restoration – the lacquer and decorative inlay remain perfectly intact, confirming its excellent vintage condition.The vase speaks as a silent witness to postwar Japan—a time when artisanal mastery merged with a subtle fascination for the modern world. The lacquered black underlay and glimmering mother-of-pearl accents appear like a miniature night landscape, evoking a poetic interplay between stillness and movement. It echoes both reverence for nature and a pursuit of contemporary clarity, embodying the discreet tension and calm that characterized Japan’s mid-20th-century decorative arts.It may serve as a striking focal point on a low console, where shifting light across its shimmering surface enhances depth and resonance. The vase would pair well with minimalist objects—geometric candlesticks, simple ceramics, or delicate Japanese prints on thin paper. Ideal settings might include mid-century modern interiors, vintage collectible compositions, or subtle eclectic spaces with Far Eastern nuance. For added effect, it is worth combining the vase with pale textiles or understated wall tones to further highlight the multi-layered beauty of
