Kutani Ware Plates Marathon

 

These small, smooth, white porcelain dishes feature charming and unique illustrations that bring a warm smile to everyone’s face. Though they appear to be traditional Japanese plates, they carry a subtle Western ambiance. Made from domestically sourced stones and hand-crafted at Kutani Ware kilns, their central stamped designs are inspired by antique rubber stamps from French flea markets. These designs are transferred to plaster molds, stamped onto the dishes, filled with blue “gosu” pigment, glazed, and fired to create the “Inban” design. Perfectly sized, they are practical for daily use and entertaining guests.

Kutani Ware, or Kutani-yaki, is a traditional form of Japanese porcelain originating from the Kutani region in Ishikawa Prefecture. Renowned for its vibrant colors and intricate designs, Kutani Ware has a rich history dating back to the early 17th century.   The production of Kutani Ware involves multiple steps, including forming the porcelain base, applying underglaze designs, firing, glazing, and then a second firing. Skilled artisans meticulously hand-paint the intricate designs.

Today, Kutani Ware continues to evolve, with contemporary artists and artisans exploring new techniques and designs while maintaining the traditional essence of this exquisite craft.
