Kutani ware is a type of overglaze porcelain produced in the southern part of Ishikawa Prefecture (Kaga, Kanazawa, Komatsu, Nomi area, etc.), characterized by its bold and gorgeous overglaze painting (decoration that applies color on top of the baked pottery). This product also uses a lot of red, green, yellow, purple (kettle only), and gold. The chrysanthemum flowers depicted have very auspicious meanings such as longevity, immortality, good health, nobility, prosperity, and warding off evil, and are a high-class auspicious pattern also used in the Imperial family's crest. Please understand that although it has been mostly displayed in a cupboard after purchase and has not been used much, there is some deterioration. It has been washed and disinfected with foam bleach before listing.
