"Somenishiki Platinum-Irodori" is a unique technique developed by Kinsai Fujii. It involves applying platinum accents to white porcelain—which has already been fired at 1,300°C—and then firing it again at 800°C to bond the platinum to the surface. The piece undergoes multiple firings—typically six to ten rounds—as each individual color is applied, with the platinum firing serving as the final step. The platinum applied across the surface creates subtle nuances of light and shadow; its luster shifts depending on the angle of the light and the viewer's perspective, ensuring a constant, radiant sparkle. This luxurious style harmoniously blends the traditions of Arita ware with a modern aesthetic.
**The Carp**
In China, legend holds that a carp capable of ascending the "Dragon Gate" waterfall amidst the Yellow River's rapids transforms into a dragon; consequently, the carp is revered as a symbol of great leaps forward and success in life. This concept spread to Japan, and by the late Edo period, the custom of flying *koinobori* (carp streamers) during the Tango no Sekku festival emerged, expressing wishes for children's healthy growth and future success. Carp motifs have long been cherished and utilized across a wide range of artistic mediums, including *makie* lacquerware and ceramics. With its noble beauty, the carp is a highly auspicious and popular design.
