Exclusive pattern for teacup

This teacup from Kamidechoemongama is so adorable that it will make your tea time even more relaxing. These simple paintings have a history of being drawn in Zen paintings and Haiga for the common people since the Muromachi period, and have been familiar to people's lives since ancient times, making them easy to blend into everyday life.

In addition, these items are hand-painted by craftsmen, and you can feel the detailed painting unique to Kutani's long-established store even in the rope pattern on the inside of the teacup. You can feel the skill of the craftsman in the thin, even lines drawn one by one around the inside of the teacup with a fine brush. The 200ml capacity of the teacup is a size that can be held securely with one hand, making it perfect for daily use, and also recommended as a birthday gift.

Tradition to modern times

Kamide Choemon Kiln was founded in Terai Village, Nomi District, Ishikawa Prefecture (currently Terai Town, Nomi City, Ishikawa Prefecture) in 1891. A long-established Kutani ware kiln with a history of over 135 years, it is a long-established company that carries out integrated production from porcelain molding to painting. The handmade and hand-painted products are attractive because of their colorful overglazes, deep dyeing, and above all, their durable and beautiful fabrics. The long-established store, which has been in operation for six generations, has recently begun new initiatives, producing Kutani ware that is in tune with modern times. As a pottery manufacturer that has continued to do so since its founding in 1891, the products are made using the traditional Kutani ware manufacturing method, while also featuring colors, shapes, and hand-painted designs that will make you love each piece to fit modern lifestyles.

Kutani ware representing Japan

Kutani ware, like other pottery, began with people shaping and painting it by hand. It is said that during the Edo period, the Maeda family, the lords of the Kaga domain, discovered pottery stone and began making porcelain.Afterwards, they learned the technique of ceramics in Bizen Arita, and it is said that it spread to vessels for enjoying tea. Its special feature is that it is easy to use as tableware and is pleasing to the eye by adding various patterns to the clear white base, and the coloring that stands out against the white background of the hard glassy material of porcelain is attractive.

Kamidechoemongama is a kiln that has mainly manufactured and sold arts and crafts, Japanese cuisine tableware, and everyday tableware, and continues to uphold the tradition of Kutani ware. I am.
Because it is hand-painted, no two are alike. The value of each item is that the painting changes depending on the craftsman who worked on it and the time of manufacture.
The reason why Kamide Choemon Gama is so particular about hand-painting is because they believe that the human hand has great potential. People are overwhelmed by the warmth, familiarity, taste, skill, and precision of handmade items. Kamidechoemongama continues to create and protect carefully hand-painted pottery with the belief that ``whatever people create has great power to move hearts, no matter the era.'' .
