This elegant necklace draws inspiration from a pair of painted porcelain bottles in The Met collection. Though they were made between around 1690 and 1720 in the Japanese province of Hizen, they’re housed in the Museum’s European Sculpture and Decorative Arts holdings as they were specifically made for the European export market. Imari porcelain, a type of Japanese Hizen ware characterized by elaborate patterns in bold colors, became especially coveted by high-society patrons in late 17th- and early 18th-century Europe. This demand for vibrancy eventually eclipsed the taste for the blue-and-white palette traditionally associated with imported Asian ceramics.
Due to the natural elements in this jewelry, the color of the stones may vary.
