"Somenishiki-Kogane" (Dyed Brocade and Gold) is a unique technique developed by Kinsai Fujii. It involves applying gold accents over white porcelain that has already been fired at 1,300°C, followed by a final firing at 800°C to bond the gold. The process entails firing the piece after the application of each individual color—requiring six to ten firings in total—before the gold is finally fired. The gold applied across the surface creates subtle nuances of light and shadow. The luster of the gold shifts depending on the angle of the light and the viewer's perspective, resulting in a magnificent, opulent style that commands a powerful presence.
Wisteria (Fuji)
Wisteria is a tree that grows wild in the mountains and fields, producing beautiful blossoms. It is a plant that has influenced Japanese culture, appearing frequently in classical literature and serving as the surname and family crest of the Fujiwara clan during the Heian period. Long admired for the elegance of its flowers, the wisteria has frequently been depicted in ceramics, *maki-e* (sprinkled gold lacquerware), and other lacquerware. With its graceful and refined appearance, the wisteria remains a highly popular motif to this day.
