Thank you for viewing. This item is an Arita-yaki, Yazaemon Kiln, Kinrande (gold brocade) three-tiered food container. Size: Diameter 15.5cm x Height 17.5cm *Please forgive any slight size discrepancies as this is a personal inspection. The Yazaemon Kiln, established in 1804, is a historic kiln that has primarily produced products for overseas markets. In the early Showa era, the "Gold Imari" exported to Southeast Asia, North America, and Europe received high praise, and the kiln gained fame both domestically and internationally as a producer of works of art. It is said that it was particularly loved by the Prince of Wales in the UK, and the traditional beauty of the Ko-Imari style was popular at the Imperial tea parties. The works of the Yazaemon Kiln are characterized by their simple yet sophisticated designs, adding a touch of luxury to everyday use. Many designs incorporate the beauty of nature, and the kiln has a reputation for creating tableware that evokes Japanese tradition and dignity. This three-tiered food container is a piece that catches the eye with its gorgeous Kinrande, reminiscent of Ko-Imari. It is a tiered container that adds color to the dining table, and the three-tiered structure is excellent for preservation, and the design of the bottom provides stability even when stacked. The warm texture unique to pottery, combined with the various expressions created by the glaze and painting, further enhances the dishes served. In addition, each tier can be used as an individual plate, making it useful for a wide range of occasions, from everyday use to special occasions. The auspicious design, which combines gold and vermilion, creates a gorgeous atmosphere suitable for New Year's and celebrations.
