Kutani Ware Chrysanthemum Small Plate – Antique Style Set of 5 | 104mm

【What is Kutani ware?】
Kutani ware is a traditional craft of Ishikawa that dates back to the early Edo period (1600s). It is known for vivid colors and bold designs. Artisans paint over the glaze with the five Kutani colors (green, purple, red, yellow, and Prussian blue), then fire the piece again, which changes the pigments to their final shades. The tradition is generally divided into three periods: Ko-Kutani, Saikō-Kutani, and Kutani.

【Product information】
From Seikō Kiln, one of Kutani ware’s most respected overglaze studios, this set of chrysanthemum-shaped small plates carries traditional “Jidai-ga” (antique-style) paintings. The kiln develops its own enamel pigments, which are translucent yet built up in layers. That gives each design real depth and a rich, luminous finish.
