Ando Jubei (1876–1956)[2] was a Japanese cloisonné artist from Nagoya.[3][4][5] Along with Hayashi Kodenji, he dominated Nagoya's enameling industry in the late Meiji era.[6] Ando, Namikawa Yasuyuki, and Namikawa Sōsuke are considered the three artists whose technical innovations brought in the "Golden Age for Japanese cloisonné" in the late 19th century.[7]

Ando was the Meiji era's most prolific creator of presentation wares: artworks that were commissioned by members of the Imperial Family for presentation to foreign dignitaries.[8] He exhibited at the Japan–British Exhibition of 1910.[9]
