All of our products are all handmade and hand painted by Master Fujii Kinsai,
therefore each individual item are slightly different each other.
*Kinsai* (Gold Decoration) is a traditional Arita ware style characterized by a multi-stage process: first, underglaze blue painting is applied and fired at 1,300°C; next, traditional Arita overglaze enamels (red, green, blue, yellow, etc.) are painted on and fired at 800°C; finally, gold is used to add decorative patterns. Because the piece is fired after the application of each color, the creation process involves five to ten separate firings. The result is a magnificent, dignified style that combines brilliant gold decoration with inventive color schemes and layouts.
*Somenishiki-Platinum-sai* (Underglaze Blue & Overglaze Enamel with Platinum) 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. The process requires firing after each color is applied—totaling six to ten firings—with the platinum applied and fired last. The platinum bonded to 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, captivating sparkle. It is a luxurious style that fuses the traditions of Arita ware with a modern sensibility.
*Tenmoku* refers to a type of black glaze.
The name originates from tea bowls used at temples on Mount Tianmu (Tenmoku-san) in Zhejiang Province, China. Japanese Zen monks who traveled to China during the Kamakura period brought these bowls back home, and they eventually came to be known in Japan as "Tenmoku" after the mountain.
Rather than ostentatious beauty, Tenmoku embodies a profound, mysterious world of deep black tones, making it one of the most highly prized styles in the world of the tea ceremony.
Rabbit (*Usagi*)
Rabbits are familiar animals that have long been cherished by the Japanese people, who have traditionally imagined them living on the moon; simply gazing at the figure of a rabbit can bring a sense of gentle calm to the heart. Found all over the world, rabbits have long been a beloved motif, appearing in a wide variety of designs on everything from decorative ornaments to household furnishings. The gentle rabbit pattern—adorable and heartwarming—is loved by people all over the world.
