Large Triangular Ceramic Box, 1996

Superb box, relatively imposing, in artisanal raku ceramic signed under the base, signature to be identified, dated 96, vintage. Triangular base, with 3 high faces, ceramic with a "laminated" appearance, sculptural and brutalist, Japanese-style appearance. High rectangular faces, on 2 small feet, smooth with each incised geometric motif in their center. Very beautiful enamel in shades of dark blue, green gray, touch of turquoise... And presenting a beautiful light petroleum luster (multicolored iridescence). Raw “foliation” corners in gray and anthracite tones. Lid composed of 6 plates, always "laminated", in a pyramid, in shades more turquoise than the body of the box, gray and blue edges, with a few discreet touches of gold, neutral luster. Interior partially enameled on the top. Approximately 23cm total height with lid, 19cm without. 13.5-14cm side. Very good general condition, it shows some very slight traces of time, particularly on the edges, a few very small, very discreet shocks. Approximately 1,800-2kg. Very beautiful piece, reminiscent of the shape of a building, of a temple.
