Kutani ware items that add color
A 5-inch plate with gorgeous colors that catches the eye. 
Gorgeous dish with boldly painted peony flowers. The bright colors stand out well on the smooth white pottery typical of Kutani ware. When you touch it, the plump texture of the pattern feels so comfortable that you can't help but stroke it with your fingers. Even a somewhat bland dining table can instantly liven up your mood. 
Size that is useful at the dining table
The size makes it useful for serving side dishes for one person or as a serving plate. Even the side dishes and sashimi you bought can be transformed into a restaurant-like atmosphere just by transferring them! It would also be great to put dorayaki or dango on top and serve it with tea. It can be used not only for everyday use, but also for celebrations and New Year's parties.

Things you should know before purchasing
What creates the expression of a pottery is things that cannot be seen in mass-produced items, such as spots, scratches, unevenness in the glaze, shading, and bending of the shape. The charm of handmade pottery is that it may have pinholes, intrusions, distortions, etc., and is not perfectly arranged, but each one is slightly different in color, size, and shape, and no two are exactly the same. Please enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime encounter as these are the unique characteristics of handmade pottery. [Uneven color/uneven baking] 
It is characterized by a uniform pattern due to transfer, but there may be slight rubbing of the pattern. [Other notes] 〇Products that have passed inspection by the pottery and artist are inspected again and delivered to the customer.

What you need to know before purchasing
-The charm of handmade items lies in the fact that no two items are exactly alike, with pinholes, penetrations, distortions, and the like, and that the colors, size, and shape of each piece vary slightly from one to another.
-The coloring, size, and shape of each piece is slightly different, and the charm of handmade items lies in the fact that they are not exactly the same.
-The finish is relatively uniform, but because it is handmade, there are individual differences in shape, size, color, and so on. Uneven color/uneven firing Because the glaze is applied by hand, the glaze may not be applied evenly. The firing process is also uneven because the temperature varies depending on the firing location in the kiln.
