About kutani ware

It is characterized by the heavy brilliance of the five colors of green, yellow, red, purple, and navy blue that are applied to the bold and daring lines.
Its long history has evolved through the tireless efforts and enthusiasm of people who have sought innovation while maintaining tradition.

AustraliaInsights from a mug of tea
The first excitement was the furoshiki: I saw the fork of lightning as I unwrapped and instantly knew it was Mt Fuji, “Rainfall Beneath the Summit.” It strikes to the heart: flexibility and continuity in all weathers. Next, the sealed box, and the carefully wrapped, “Red Fuji on a Clear Day with a Southern Breeze,” calling all beings to peaceful attention. Tea becomes a Fuji dedication! A deep gassho to you all.
