Mokubei

Approximately 100 years after the close of the ko-Kutani kilns, a large group of Kutani ware kilns collaborated to revive its legacy. The style that emerged during this period is called Revived Kutani, with Mokubei being one of its notable styles.

Guided by the Kyoto painter Aoki Mokubei, this style is characterized by the use of calming red pigments as a base. Pieces often depict people, many including children, on a vibrant background, creating harmonious and ornate designs.

Guinomi

Guinomi are a type of sake cup, smaller than a typical Japanese teacup but somewhat larger than other sake cups. They are often used without a sake carafe, with sake poured directly from the bottle.

Guinomi originally held delicacies during Japanese tea ceremonies, but in time came to be used for drinking sake afterward. They have therefore evolved alongside Japan’s unique tea culture.
