Fine Japanese Tsuiki Shippo & Partial Uchidashi Technique by Ando Jubei PIB
I was quite surprised to find this particular vase in the current storage box! This spectacular vase combines two key techniques: tsuiki shippo and uchidashi (hammered out). Tsuiki shippo is a subcategory of ginbari, which is a general term for enameled silver foil ground, however, in this piece, the foundation is most likely polished copper. This piece vividly shows the technical skills that are necessary for the tsuiki shippo technique, where the foundation is worked to create a sculptural quality and becomes one of the key aspects of the work. The specific area of the uchidashi shippo (hammered out) technique is applied to the largest (principal) fantailed goldfish.

The other fancy goldfish are finished in the tsuiki shippo technique. As in most of early works by Ando, the quality and attention to detail, particularly to the fancy goldfish is superb.

To find such a strong example in pristine condition that combines the tsuiki shippo and uchidashi technique is truly exciting, especially when it is marked by the Ando Jubei workshop. The height of the vase is approximately 6.0 inches.

The width of the vase is approximately 3.5 inches. This exact piece is illustrated on page 50, in Chapter 7, which explores various cloisonne enamel techniqes that the artist leveraged to create a raised surface or used enamel in relief, in "Japanese Cloisonne Enamels; A Private Collector's Notes and Reference Guide, " by Gary Yoshino. (PIB - P ictured I n B ook). As cloisonne enamel is very fragile, this vase will be double boxed and packed with tremendous care.
