Nabeshima-yaki for modern life

A KOSEN pot with a dignity that makes you feel as if you were in a museum. We have added an arrangement that closely matches modern life while keeping the technique of Nabeshima-yaki. Nabeshima-yaki and its technique were once carefully protected by the hands of a few kilns as a gift to the daimyo. The Torasen kiln, which is the origin of the Nabeshima-yaki pottery, is making the works that have been fully poured into our outstanding technical capabilities as "artistic commerce and industry products" for our daily lives.

The Nabeshima Celadon pot has a gentle curve and a jade-like pale blue color unique to the Torasen kiln. It was created with a novel idea that has never been seen before in Nabeshima ware, which was led by outstanding technical capabilities. Its soothing beauty is recommended for enjoying a visually pleasing tea time.

Secret Kiln Village

Nabeshima ware is a type of Arita ware, and is called the pottery of the Nabeshima clan that was made in Iwayagawachi, Arita during the Edo period. At that time, Nabeshima ware, which was made by bringing 31 excellent potters from Arita, was a kiln that only made gifts to the daimyo, so the technique was used on rugged terrain so that it would not be distributed to the world. It was made and has been called "Secret Kiln Village".
"KOSEN" is the evolution of the Nabeshima ware kiln, Torasen kiln, into modern daily necessities. The Torasen kiln is a long-established kiln that has inherited technology for more than 300 years, but it is not a work of art for a limited number of people, nor is it a mass-produced work of art that is mass-produced and consumed. It means a vessel located between the mass-produced product and the artistic commerce and industry product, and makes the product.

Types of Nabeshima ware

There are three types of Nabeshima ware. Nabeshima Celadon is made from 100% natural celadon, and its clear jade-colored celadon glaze is the product of Torasen Kiln's many years of research. The rough is yellow, and when it is crushed into small pieces, dissolved in water, glazed, and baked on white porcelain, it becomes celadon. It is a gem that is convinced that its elegant appearance was a daily necessities of a daimyo.
The beautiful color created by applying 100% natural celadon glaze, which is the only one in Japan, has a unique presence. In addition, there are other places in Japan where celadon rough can be obtained, but it is a precious thing that only Okawachi in Saga still uses rough stone as an industry.

Color Nabeshima is a sketch drawn in indigo Kuresu, fired, and then overpainted in three colors: red, yellow, and green. It is a gorgeous vessel with a limited number of colors and various designs.

Ainabejima is a transparent base with indigo dyeing by Gosu, and when placed side by side with Shikinabejima, it brings out the charm of both.

Nabeshima ware, which can be said to be one-of-a-kind, is a beautifully colored pot that is also recommended as a gift for moving. With the thought of giving time to relax, please choose it as a gift for that person who is always busy.
