This item was sold at the Nagoya venue of the special exhibition "PSYCHOVISION hide MUSEUM Since 2000", the 23rd Memorial Special Project. It is now available for purchase by fans who were unable to attend the special exhibition, including those from distant locations. With a thickness of approximately 1 millimeter and a weight of approximately 85 grams, this is a captivating free cup featuring the cool image of hide on the bottom of a porcelain known as "rankate" (eggshell ware), which is so thin that light shines through it. On the outer circumference, the recycle mark logo and the yellow heart are deliberately rendered in white, creating a stylish and understated design. This eggshell ware, with its design that appears when light shines through the bottom, is a porcelain with overglaze painting by Kutani ware, and is a "phantom craft" that had been discontinued for a long time. Not many people in the pottery industry even know of its existence, and it can only be seen in antiques nowadays. This time, we have been able to revive this unknown phantom craft in the modern era. It is a unique craftwork befitting hide, who took pride in Japanese culture. This traditional craft item, which utilizes the technology revived through the "hide MUSEUM," is a valuable item that can only be obtained on this occasion. Why not add it to your "hide collection"? Please enjoy the image of hide appearing on the phantom craft in your hands. [What is Eggshell Ware?] It is characterized by its extremely thin porcelain, said to be 1 millimeter thick, through which light shines. There are various theories about its origin, with Mikawachi ware in Nagasaki Prefecture and Mino ware being the most likely. The first eggshell ware was created in the 1830s. It was a high-class porcelain exported to Europe under the name "egg shell" through the Netherlands, Japan's trading partner at the time, and gained popularity. Among them, items painted with Kutani ware's Akae Kinrandate (red-painted gold brocade) and items where geishas and samurai appeared when light shone through the bottom of the cup were highly prized. However, with changes in the times, demand disappeared, and it is said that by the mid-Meiji era, the craftsmen who made eggshell ware and see-through pictures disappeared, and the transmission of the technology was lost. Therefore, it is a mysterious craftwork whose manufacturing method has not been accurately passed down to the present day. −−−−−−−−−−−−− Origin: Japan Specifications: Body / Mino ware, Painting / Kutani ware Material: Porcelain Size: Diameter 70mm, Height 80mm Other: Comes in a gift box −−−−−−−−−−−−−
