Estimated Shipping Widget will be displayed here!
The elongated form of this hand-painted bowl introduces a gentle sense of movement, where an animal silhouette appears, filled with intricate botanical designs. Offered in three variations, each pairing of color and animal brings its own character. Deep blue, soft green, and warm vermillion tones are layered with finely drawn leaves and blossoms, forming a dense, tapestry-like pattern within each silhouette.
The glossy pigments characteristic of Kutani ware give the surface a clear, luminous quality, while small accents and a vermillion ring along the rim bring the composition into quiet balance.
With its generous proportions, the bowl is well suited to serving dishes such as salads, curry, pasta, or fruit. Its shape lends a natural flow to the presentation while remaining easy to incorporate into everyday meals. It can also be paired with other pieces from the same series, allowing the motifs to carry through the setting.

Maker / Brand
Taishi Kiln, founded in 2011 in Nonoichi City, Ishikawa Prefecture by Kutani ware artist Yamachika Yasushi, was established to express his personal artistic vision within a lineage as the fourth generation of Seizan Kiln artisans. Drawing on traditional overglaze enamel techniques passed down through generations, the kiln balances respect for Kutani ware heritage with forms suited to everyday use.
Dedicated to preserving time-honored color painting methods, its pieces reflect this philosophy. The kiln works with classic Kutani techniques such as hanazume and aochibu, while also incorporating contemporary motifs into its lineup.
Origin
Kutani ware is a traditional Japanese porcelain from the Kaga region in Ishikawa Prefecture, with a history spanning over 350 years. Known for its vibrant overglaze enamel designs and use of five signature colors, known as Kutani gosai—navy blue, red, purple, green, and yellow pigments. This timeless craft has continuously evolved through generations of artisans who balance innovation with a deep respect for tradition.
Kutani ware exhibits a diverse range of distinctive styles, shaped by evolving artistic tastes over the centuries. Styles such as ko-Kutani, with its bold colors, geometric patterns, and painterly detail, and akae-saibyo, marked by ultra-fine red lines. Many pieces feature traditional Japanese motifs, such as kacho (flowers and birds) and sansui (landscapes), offering a timeless glimpse into the beauty of nature and the seasons.
