Buyer Note

Kutani ware from Ishikawa Prefecture is known for its bold overglaze enamels. The Akae Kinrande style combines dense red (Akae) patterns with real gold (honkin) brocade gilding, a technique associated with high-end Meiji export and collector ceramics. Chawan of this style were used for tea ceremony and also produced as display pieces.

Authenticity Note

Base bears a Shoza mark consistent with Kutani Shoza-style production. Buyers seeking formal authentication should consult a specialist in Japanese ceramics.

Care Note

Hand wash only with mild soap and cool water. Do not microwave or use in dishwasher. Gold gilding is fragile; avoid abrasive cleaning.
