Kutaniyaki Classic Vintage Era Tea Cup Set
This exquisitely crafted Kutaniyaki set presents a curated collection of six hand-painted ceramic cups, each representing a distinguished school of traditional Kutani porcelain. Drawing from six celebrated artistic lineages—Kokutani, Yoshidaya, Mokubei, Eiraku, Iidaya, and Shozan—the collection showcases the bold colors, intricate patterns, and rich historical narratives that define this revered Japanese craft.
· Kokutani (古九谷): Celebrated for its expressive use of deep blues, vibrant yellows, and rich purples in freehand floral and landscape motifs.
· Yoshidaya (吉田屋): Evolved from Kokutani, characterized by a strong palette of green, yellow, and blue, intentionally omitting red for a grounded, earthy elegance.
· Mokubei (木米): Recognizable for its striking crimson backgrounds, featuring detailed depictions of figures and objects with a remarkable sense of depth.
· Eiraku (永楽): Distinguished by lavish red and gold accents, often illustrating elaborate floral designs with refined, graceful lines.
· Iidaya (飯田屋): Notable for its meticulous red-line work enhanced with gold detailing, creating an opulent and ornate aesthetic.
· Shozan (庄三): Integrates Western painting techniques, offering a sophisticated fusion of Japanese tradition and European artistic sensibility.
Each cup in this collection masterfully blends the iconic Kutani palette—green, yellow, purple, red, and Prussian blue—with contemporary sophistication. Perfect for savoring tea or sake, this set also stands as a striking decorative statement and a meaningful gift, celebrating the timeless artistry of Kutani ware.
