Introduction to Kutani Ware Technique: Ginsai
An unparalleled color that words cannot fully capture. This design features a layer of transparent glaze or five-color glaze applied over a silver surface. It is characterized by a calm brilliance, gentle luster, and glass-like texture. This intricate method requires an additional firing in the kiln compared to conventional techniques, making it labor-intensive despite its dazzling appearance. Note that this is not pure silver leaf; it utilizes a luxurious technique that is about seven times thicker than regular silver leaf to avoid melting.

Kutani Ware is highly regarded worldwide as one of Japan's three major colored porcelain, and as a representative traditional craft known as "Japan Kutani."

Ideal for gifts: Recommended for celebratory occasions like 60th (Kanreki) and 70th (Koki) birthdays, as well as for retirement, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Respect for the Aged Day, and other commemorations.
