Thank you for taking the time to view my website. Henry Ward Beecher said “Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.” This is no less true for the collective soul of a culture. The art of Japan from the Meiji era shows a dedication to the pursuit of perfectly rendering the clay, ink, enamel and other media to capture the transient beauty of that moment and subject. Whether it be the subtle, harmonic flow captured in the Studio Porcelain of Kozan, the colorful and intricate detail of Kinkozan Satsuma or the meticulous precision of the master enamellist Namikawa, Japanese art from the Golden Age has a lasting beauty that will survive for generations to come.

It is very important to me that the piece you select will bring you many years of viewing pleasure so I offer a 100% unconditional money back guarantee and in most cases, will pay for return postage on domestic orders (see my return policy).
