Maker / Brand
The seventh generation Yazaemon describes his vision for Arita Porcelain Lab as "to modernize Arita Ware, the luxury Japanese porcelain culture, and to convey it to the world." Arita Porcelain Lab's tableware retains the aesthetic of "elegance" that Japanese people have valued since ancient times, and adds a stylish appearance to suit modern living spaces.
The colors of the tableware have been carefully selected, with new colors developed for traditional patterns and designs that freely combine traditional patterns to suit modern interiors. They have developed the original glaze through countless prototypes.
Arita Porcelain Lab also designed perfume bottles made of Arita Ware at the request of Guerlain, a French perfume and cosmetics maker, and collaborated with Laduree, a famous confectionery store, to produce tea and Arita Ware. The company is also deepening its ties overseas, with its tableware being used in a restaurant in the Mandarin Hotel (Paris, France).

Gold
In the 8th century, gold was first discovered in Japan. Emperor Shomu (701 CE–756 CE) extensively used it to gild Buddha statues. The color gold came to evoke a sense of sacredness, nobility, and luxury. Japan places great emphasis on the sense of seasons, and gold is often associated with the bountiful autumn and the New Year, conveying a festive and auspicious atmosphere.
Fine gold powder is used in the maki-e technique to decorate the Aizu Lacquerware sakazuki flat sake cup, giving it an enchantingly soft and radiant glow. The kikubishi-shaped plate from Zuiho Kiln showcases a gentle and warm gold hue. The owl figurine, which perfectly combines gold with the Kutani gosai "five colors," is also very charming.
