The museum-quality collection of Japanese art
and antiques of Orientations Gallery represents the best craftsmanship and
artistry ever produced.
The gallery carries Japanese decorative
arts of the 18th
and 19th
centuries: exquisite antique cloisonné enamels, bronzes, married metalwork
inlaid with shakudo and shibuichi, art lacquer, carvings in wood and ivory
including okimono and netsuke, ojime, inro, textiles including fukusa, kesa
and obi, silver and articulated insects and animals and Satsuma. Many of the
objects are signed by artists who were celebrated in their own times as
Imperial Court Artists and won numerous awards at World Fairs and
international expositions.
Now in its 28th
year, the gallery maintains close relationships with major museums,
collectors, and art institutions internationally. A personalized
introduction is provided with explanations of the techniques and themes that
add to one's enjoyment. Each carefully selected object must exhibit the
highest standards of condition and outstanding technical virtuosity. |
