純銀製銀瓶 ~蓮模様~

皆様こんにちは。
本日は作品のご紹介をいたします。「純銀製銀瓶 蓮模様」でございます。
仏教の世界では蓮は仏様が鎮座する厳かで美しい植物です。この蓮の模様はひとつひとつ叩いて打ち出していきます。一枚の銀板から機械を使用せず職人の手と伝承されてきた道具の数々を駆使し、この様な細かい模様を施し、一つの作品が完成します。都会の喧騒を離れひと時の安らぎを得るために、この蓮模様で沸かしたお湯を使用し、お茶を一服味わってみてはいかがでしょうか?
手作りだからこそ成し得るこれらの日本の芸術の技を是非京都瑞鳳堂でご覧くださいませ。


When your life is faced with the raucousness of the city and the bustle of your career, do you still remember the taste of peace and cleanness? Kyoto Zuihodo hopes to bring about in us a stable and peaceful mind when making tea by using the silver kettle, which is adorned with the pattern of lotus petals on its surface. The lotus has an unsullied temperament. Along with the purity and elegance of silver, the tea kettle lets us throw off the anxiety and cloudiness of our realities right away.
Starting from a piece of sterling silver using tools that have been passed down and retained from the Meiji era, the body of the kettle is made by hammering and completely eschewing the welding method. The shape of its lower abdomen is round and full, slightly and gradually closing up on the way up. There is also a neat twist made by hammers, which extends extend straight up to the lid. Hammering tools are the patrimony of Meiji era and are made by repeating a trimming technique to meet the requirements for craftsman in order to create specific patterns for silver pots and kettles, so they can hammer the unique vein lines.
Using top-level, pure quality precious metals as materials and infusing traditional Japanese culture and jewelry and metal arts, every singular silver pot is homemade in Japan. Kyoto Zuihodo adopts the Japanese Samurai spirit which believes that no matter how hard the creative process is, or how long it might take, we can always overcome ourselves, hammering delicately to finish the most perfect works of art in our hearts and present them to collectors.


當不停地面對城市的嘈雜,事業的奔碌,您是否還記得平和,清淨的滋味?京都瑞鳳堂希望當使用此銀壺靜心沏茶時,伴隨著上頭的蓮花瓣葉,帶給我們的是一種安定,閑靜的心靈.蓮,出汙泥而不染的氣質,與銀質的純粹與高雅,讓我們頃刻拋脫現實的焦躁與混濁.
從一片純銀片開始,使用明治時期所傳承,保留下的工具,鎚打製出壺身,完全避免了焊接.器形下腹圓潤飽滿,順上逐漸微收,鎚打出一道俐落轉折,再平直延伸上壺蓋.明治期所傳承下的鎚打工具,皆為當時的職人為了打造特定的銀壺紋路而一再修整而製,方能鎚打出獨有的紋理.
使用頂級,質量純粹的貴金屬為媒材,把日本傳統文化與金工藝術融為一體,每把銀壺皆為日本純手工製作,京都瑞鳳堂發揮日本武士精神,不論創作過程的艱難,耗費時間甚久,皆能戰勝自我,細膩地鎚打,為達心中期待呈現出最完美的藝術品給藏家們.
