Hasami ware is a traditional Japanese ceramic produced in Hasami Town, often called the "Town of Pottery," located in Nagasaki Prefecture, Kyushu. For over 400 years, it has been cherished as durable and practical tableware for everyday use.
It is known for its vibrant designs painted on a pure white porcelain base—an iconic feature of Japanese porcelain.

Kinrande
Introducing a tableware collection inspired by the kinrande style, an elegant and vibrant design style that draws inspiration from old Imari ware. Kinrande-style Imari ware gained immense popularity as export items between the 18th and 19th centuries. Large vases and plate sets were crafted especially for European royalty and nobility, and these pieces were highly valued as elegant and beautiful additions to their palaces.
This collection features luxurious gold accents, deep shades of red, and elegant blues. Many designs are densely packed with intricate patterns set within balanced, symmetrical compositions. Floral motifs, particularly those of peonies and chrysanthemums, frequently appear. Additionally, mythical creatures like dragons and phoenixes are prominently depicted, symbolizing power and rebirth, respectively, and adding an auspicious touch to these extravagant ceramics.
