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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e【Product information】\u003cbr\u003eFrom 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWays to use them\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoy sauce or dipping dishes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall appetizers, pickles, or sweets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTea-time treats such as wagashi or cookies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRings and small accessories\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA gift for a housewarming, wedding, or anyone who loves Japanese tableware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e【size】 104mm (Diameter)\u003cbr\u003e【materials】Porcelain\u003cbr\u003e【product care】Hand wash gently with a soft sponge.
