Because the piece is fired after the application of each color, the creation of a single work involves five to ten separate firings. It is a magnificent and dignified style that combines brilliant gold decoration with inventive color schemes and layouts.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003e**Egret (*Sagi*)**\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003eBecause egrets fly to watersides near human settlements more frequently than cranes do, they have long been familiar to people and revered as sacred birds. In China, the word for egret (*lu*) is a homophone for the word for \"path\" or \"journey\" (*lu*), associating the bird with the auspicious concept of \"uninterrupted prosperity along one's path.\" Influenced by this, the motif is widely used in Japanese arts, including *makie* lacquerware and ceramics. The image of a quietly standing egret—exuding an air of elegance and purity—is a popular auspicious motif.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003e**Plum Blossom (*Ume*)**\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003ePlum blossoms, which endure the harsh winter and bloom before other plants, are considered symbols of vitality.

The tortoise-shell pattern has a long history, appearing even among the treasures of the Shōsō-in repository. Its perfected beauty as a traditional design appeals to everyone, and it is frequently depicted on Arita and Imari ware. The tortoise symbolizes longevity, while the hexagonal shape—known as a honeycomb structure—is prized for its incredible strength and stability; thus, the pattern embodies wishes for eternal prosperity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff0000;\"\u003eCondition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: #0070c0; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;\"\u003eLimited Edition Products by Master Fujii Kinsai Arita Saga Japan.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: #0070c0; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;\"\u003eThe number of each production are very limited \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: #0070c0; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;\"\u003eand we sell only AAA+ (Finest quality item only).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: red; font-family: 'Helvetica','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: red; font-family: 'Helvetica','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;\"\u003eMaterial \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: ＭＳ Ｐゴシック; font-size: medium;\" size=\"3\" face=\"ＭＳ Ｐゴシック\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #3d85c6;\"\u003eUsing real Gold\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: red; font-family: 'Helvetica','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;\"\u003eVase Size \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #3d85c6;\"\u003eHeight 23.20 cm (9.134 \")\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #3d85c6;\"\u003eDiameter 13.20 cm (5.197 \")\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: red; font-family: 'Arial Unicode MS'; font-size: 11pt;\"\u003eDelivery Time\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #3d85c6;\"\u003eWe will ship your order within 10 days.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #3d85c6;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/2217\/files\/30327469_2048x2048.jpg?v=1557387570\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #3d85c6;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/2217\/files\/2_69a16a71-1dee-4685-8c4b-0927abf0d4ba_2048x2048.jpg?v=1557387575\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #3d85c6;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/2217\/files\/3_778012c6-fecc-4d05-9e9a-9bc6698a6e05_2048x2048.jpg?v=1557387578\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #3d85c6;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/2217\/files\/4_ab49438c-a89e-4195-bef3-b7b0931d0e3a_2048x2048.jpg?v=1557387581\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fujii Kinsai","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":16900787590,"sku":"","price":920.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/2217\/products\/1_5d0530f1-1c93-4346-9580-abf35dd42dc9.jpg?v=1458195430","url":"https:\/\/www.teamwakon.com\/products\/fujii-kinsai-arita-japan-somenishiki-kinsai-kikko-monyou-plum-sagi-vase-23-20-cm-free-shipping","provider":"Magnificent Items from Japan (Team Wakon Japan)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
