The Treasure House Fair

This year, for The Treasure House Fair, Rose Uniacke’s curation is an exploration of dark and light as outlined in Tanizaki’s celebrated 1930s essay on Japanese aesthetics.
Restrained in palette, the stand offers the discipline of black lacquer and iron, in contrast with the sparkling play of light from glass; the subtlety of diffused light and the soft sheen of ceramics against the gleam of gold and bronze - everywhere, glimmer chasing shadow, in a stunning meditation on 19th century Japonisme.
