    Product Description

    Luminous camellia blossoms emerge from a deep green ground, shifting from emerald to pale yellow-green across the rounded flask and two matching cups. The design, known as Gin Sazanka or silver camellia, brings a quiet richness to an evening sake setting.

    The flask has a gently rounded body, a narrow neck and a flared lip. Its 350 ml capacity is well suited to small pours shared over dinner, while the two compact cups echo its floral decoration. Set the three pieces on a simple wooden tray or alongside understated tableware to let the green tones stand out.

    Made in Japan from ceramic, this Kutani set combines a distinctive floral surface with a practical three-piece serving format. Each cup measures 5.5 cm in diameter and 4 cm high, a small scale for sipping and refilling throughout a meal.

    Presented in a gift box, it is a considered choice for a wedding, a housewarming or a sake enthusiast. The set includes one flask and two cups.

    Kutani: Japan’s art of brilliant color

    Kutani ware emerged in Ishikawa in the 17th century and became celebrated for bold overglaze painting and an unmistakably rich use of color. Its decorative language ranges from expressive nature motifs to highly detailed compositions, giving Kutani porcelain a vivid character unlike almost any other Japanese ceramic tradition.

    What is Kutani ware?

    Kutani ware is a tradition of Japanese porcelain associated with Ishikawa Prefecture. It first developed in the 17th century and is especially known for richly colored overglaze decoration, bold compositions and a wide range of styles that evolved over several centuries.

    What are the five colors of Kutani ware?

    The traditional Kutani palette is often referred to as Kutani Gosai, or the five Kutani colors: red, yellow, green, purple and dark blue. These vivid overglaze enamels are used in different combinations, from dense decorative painting to more restrained contemporary work.

    Where is Kutani ware made?

    Kutani ware is associated with Ishikawa Prefecture in Japan’s Hokuriku region, particularly the areas around Kaga, Komatsu and Kanazawa. The original Kutani production began near present-day Kaga in the mid-1600s.

    Why does Kutani ware look so different from other Japanese porcelain?

    Kutani is distinguished by its emphasis on decoration after the porcelain body has been fired. Layers of colored enamel are applied over the glaze, allowing artists to create saturated color, strong outlines and highly expressive imagery. This gives Kutani ware a more painterly and often more dramatic appearance than many other Japanese porcelain traditions.
