Patterned Soy Sauce Dispenser

These elegantly crafted Kutani ware soy sauce dispensers feature designs that add traditional charm and intricate detail to your dining table. Featuring traditional patterns and lucky symbols, these dispensers showcase Kutani ware's signature gosai overglaze, a "five-colored" technique applied over pristine white porcelain.

Each of the six unique motifs decorates both the stopper and the base, creating a harmonious design. The designs showcase vibrant Kutani ware motifs, including geometric cobblestone patterns, bold floral displays, and iconic auspicious symbols like the collection of treasures, daruma, and seigaiha, "wave shapes." Playful touches, such as a yellow rabbit, add charm and bring good fortune.

These dispensers are perfect for soy sauce and versatile enough for other liquid condiments like salad dressings, olive oil, or syrup. Whether serving sushi or hosting a special meal, these pieces bring timeless elegance to your table.

Seikou Kiln

Seikou Kiln, founded in the early Taisho era (1912–1926 CE) in Nomi City, Ishikawa Prefecture, has long been dedicated to the art of Japanese overglaze painting for Kutani ware. Through years of research, the kiln perfected a high-quality technique for transferring designs and patterns using in-house printed sheets. This method preserves the transparency of glassy glazes and the depth of thick overglaze paints, achieving the same richness as traditional hand-painting. Their work has earned prestigious accolades, including recognition in the Japan Tourism Agency's Charming Japanese Souvenir Contest.

Kutani Ware

Kutani ware is a pottery produced in the Kaga region of Ishikawa Prefecture, with a history spanning over 350 years. It is characterized by the heavy brilliance of the five colors of navy blue, red, purple, green, and yellow 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.
