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 patterns are 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 accents are added to create intricate patterns. Because the piece is fired after the application of each color, the entire process requires five to ten separate firings to complete a single work. The result is a magnificent, dignified style that combines brilliant gold decoration with inventive color schemes and layouts.
*Yūrikō* (underglaze red) is a technique that utilizes copper-based pigments for underglaze painting; through the chemical processes of oxidation and reduction during firing, a crimson hue is produced beneath a transparent glaze. While the origins of *yūrikō* date back to the late Yuan Dynasty in China (14th century), its production in Hizen porcelain occurred during the Early Imari period (1610–1650). However, the technique subsequently fell into decline due to the difficulty of the firing process and the instability of the resulting colors. If the firing temperature rises too high, the red fails to develop, leaving the piece stark white; conversely, firing in an oxidizing atmosphere turns the color green. The outcome is highly sensitive to the nature of the flames, and even slight temperature fluctuations can result in completely different colors. Achieving consistent results is extremely difficult—so much so that there have been countless instances where more than two-thirds of the pieces had to be discarded upon removal from the kiln.
