Maker / Brand
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.
Crafts
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.
