Maker / Brand
Souraku-an, founded in 2013 and headed by traditional Kutani ware craftsperson Sato Tsuyoshi, consists of creative and ambitious young craftspeople. Sato learned Kutani ware techniques in addition to mastering ink painting techniques to create his own unique works.
Souraku-an values the classical aesthetics of traditional Kutani ware and leverages the intrinsic charm of materials such as clay, glaze, and paint. Each item is individually formed on a potter's wheel, fired, carefully painted using the traditional five colors of Kutani ware, and fired again in a kiln. With the aesthetic sense that has been handed down from generation to generation in Kutani ware, Souraku-an creates designs that feel at once traditional and modern.
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.

Bowl Sets
This collection features Japanese bowls that come as sets. Some contain bowls of the same size and pattern, while others consist of carefully matched size and design variations. Here you will also find oryoki bowl sets, Zen-inspired nesting bowls that pleasingly combine into a single neat stack. Regardless of the variety, bringing a handcrafted bowl set into your home is a beautiful and easy way to create harmony and unity in any table setting.
Peony
Often seen in Japanese art and design, the grand, luxurious peony symbolizes nobility, grace, refined beauty, and more. Introduced to Japan from China during the Heian period (794 CE–1185 CE), a time celebrated for its aesthetic refinement, peonies quickly became popular in the gardens of the aristocracy and were often celebrated in poetry. Blooming in late spring, these flowers display an array of colors, from deep reds and soft purples to vibrant pinks and radiant yellows. Their lush, expressive petals bring a sense of grace and elegance to each piece in this collection, elevating the table with artful beauty.
