Purple-glazed Cochin Ware Openwork Incense Burner with Cloisonné Design “Sanshi-Suimei” (Beautiful Mountains and Clear Waters)

This incense burner is executed in the Cochin technique, a form of overglaze enameling. The interior is decorated in underglaze blue with a landscape motif. By applying openwork across the entire exterior, the blue of the interior subtly emerges through the purple glaze, creating a layered and evocative visual effect.
The title “Sanshi-Suimei” expresses a vision of pure and beautiful scenery, and the work was created to evoke the serene harmony of mountains and waters.
