At Tasei Kiln, two skilled female artisans, each with over 40 years of experience, meticulously paint intricate and graceful patterns onto each item before coating them with a luster glaze. This special technique imbues the sauce plate with a luxurious and stylish feel. Following the painting of sakura designs, they are meticulously masked off, leaving the remaining surface to be coated with the luster glaze. The white surface exhibits a distinct textured glossy glimmer and shines beautifully under light, enhanced by an added sprinkle of glaze.

ABOUT ARITA WARE

Arita Ware, made in the town of Arita in Saga Prefecture, is the oldest porcelain production area in Japan's history. Arita porcelain is characterized by its translucent white porcelain surface, dyeing using "Gosu" (indigo pigment), and gorgeous red painting using glassy overglaze pigments (red, green, yellow, purple, and blue). The pottery is highly durable and is produced in a wide variety of styles, from fine art to daily necessities. It was exported to Europe, where it was prized as fine art and called "white gold".

 Arita Ware is also a prestigious brand that is admired by ceramicists from other regions as a representative porcelain production area.
