Kutani ware Four Seasons Gold Hanazume Mug Cup / 九谷焼 春夏秋冬 マグカップ

Kutani ware(九谷焼) is a traditional craft of Ishikawa prefecture(石川県) with a history of over 360 years. The beauty of nature, brilliant colour and fine calligraphy are the key features of this style of Japanese pottery. 

This mug cup features Hanazume Style, which covers hand-painted flowers on the surface and is outlined with gold paints. It is a traditional technique of Kutani ware, introduced by Shiro Mizuta in 1913. Since that time, it has become a representative of Kutani ware. 

As the whole piece is handmade in Japan, slight irregularities in size, glaze, colour and texture might occur and reflect the nature of the artisan product.
