Kutani ware Gold Leaf Pair Sake Cup / 九谷焼 金箔 ペア盃

Gold leaf is a traditional crafting technique in Japan that involves the application of a thin layer of gold onto the surface of hand-wheeled cups. Once the gold leaf has been applied, the cup is fired in a kiln to set the gold and create a durable, long-lasting finish. The result is a stunning, golden mug with a rich, lustrous shine.

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. 

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.
