Kutani ware, known overseas as a traditional work of art, has transcended the boundaries of craftmanship since the late Showa era in Japan(1960s-1980s), evolving from a traditional craft to fine art. Among the techniques that developed during this period is the art of "Ginsai". Each pattern, meticulously crafted by hand using silver foil, possesses a beauty so unique that it truly appears as an unparalleled work of art in the world.
