Product Description

Meet popular young artist Shiho Aikawa, who specializes in the unique technique of "Ichin," a method of raising paint with special tools to create three-dimensional images. The "Ichin" technique is rare, and its bold yet beautiful and pleasing texture has made it a burgeoning trend in pottery painting in recent years.

 

These vessels have an exciting presence just by being there, and they invite excitement. Enjoy these meticulously crafted creative ceramics that are infused with careful attention and dedication

 

Similar to ochoko, guinomi is a sake cup with a wider mouth for a more immersive drinking experience. Its deeper shape is in keeping with the traditional practice of taking a sip to fully appreciate the sake. Guinomi design often reflects regional aesthetics and craftsmanship, making each cup a unique work of art.

 

It can, of course, be filled with sake and enjoyed in a variety of ways.

How to care for Kutani ware

Care and Maintenance

Adorned with exquisite floral colors and gold paint doesn’t mean it was designed just for display. 

Kutani pottery was designed and made for daily joy. 

With proper care and knowledge, this timeless piece promises years of delightful use.​

Hand washing is recommended whenever possible

You can use a soft sponge and a mild detergent to clean the dish. It is important to wash gently with a soft sponge or cloth.​ 

While you can use a dishwasher, we recommend hand washing as much as possible for some items such as those made of gold and silver, which tend to peel off after a long period of use.​

Be careful with microwave ovens

Do not use products made of gold or silver in the microwave or oven. 

Sparks may fly off and cause the surface to become dirty or damaged.​

Rapid temperature change

Do not use products made of gold or silver in the microwave or oven. 

Sparks may fly off and cause the surface to become dirty or damaged.​
