Stored Item: Maeda Toki Koyama Kiln Hana Ginsai Square Pickled Vegetable Dish 16cm Square Size: Height: 6cm, Width: 16cm, Square From my collection, I have a large number of extremely rare, premium pieces that I no longer use. Wealthy Japanese families, generation after generation, prefer and use domestically made items in their daily lives. Those I meet at garden parties and with the Imperial Family all dislike flashy foreign-made items and prefer to use and cherish domestic products. A former peerage member, who was close to me at the time, also used this Kinsai Kariginu series. Currently, the manufacturer cannot reproduce it. Skilled craftsmen are declining. Only a few types of Seika Ryokusai are manufactured. Japanese tableware is sold for over 11,000 yen for only a few series. The highly skilled craftsman techniques of the Hana Ginsai and other Kinsai series have all been discontinued and production has ended. Founded in 1946 (Showa 21), the company is in its 78th year and has downsized its tableware division. Products using this kind of Kinsai will never be manufactured again, and it is extremely difficult to purchase them. Important: We will ship via Yu-Pack anonymous courier service.
