Artist / Company: Koransha
Simply put, POA stands for “Price on Application”.
With some of our pieces, we prefer not to openly publish our asking price. We absolutely welcome visitors to the website to contact us to enquire about the cost of such pieces.
We just prefer to have a conversation to allow us to explain the pricing as well as to talk in more detail about the piece in question.
It doesn’t necessarily mean that it is a super expensive piece but it may just be that there is something unique or special that we would like to be able to tell you about in more detail.
Contact us to find out more.
An elegant large dish by the Koransha Company and depicting a mountain scene. The top of a Pagoda is visible above the tree line in the distance and a number of figures going about their day in the foreground.
A poem is inscribed at the top of the dish that reads:
“Life is a journey, flowing like a torrential river towards the future, under the blue sky and in green mountains, not alone but with old familiar friends.”
The reverse of the dish is signed by the artist.
We wrote a short blog about this dish. You can read it here.
Condition is very good. Don’t hesitate to contact us for further information or to request a viewing.
