It is a phenomenon where the glaze cracks due to the difference in shrinkage between the pottery body and the glaze. Kutani-yaki is a porcelain with colored overglaze produced in Kanazawa City, Komatsu City, Kaga City, and Nomi City in the southern part of Ishikawa Prefecture. It is characterized by its vibrant overglaze painting called Gosai-de (commonly known as "Kutani Gosai"). In the Edo period, after high-quality pottery stone was discovered in Kutani Village (present-day Kaga City, Ishikawa Prefecture), the territory of the Daishoji clan, a branch of the Kaga clan, Goto Saijiro [3] was sent to Arita to learn the skills. It is said to have been started as a clan's industrial policy in the early Meireki era (around 1655) after his return to the clan. However, it suddenly ceased production about half a century later, in the late Genroku era (early 1700s). There are various theories about the reason for the closure, and it is not clear. The items made during this time are called "Ko-Kutani" (Old Kutani). We also offer combined sales. We have a lot of items for sale! Please take a look! Thank you very much!
