Bio:
Kutani porcelain originates from Ishikawa Prefecture in Japan and dates back to the 17th century. It is renowned for its rich colour palette and finely detailed hand-painted decoration, often featuring the distinctive aka-e style dominated by red tones. Around 1900, production combined traditional Japanese motifs with pieces made for export markets, making these works highly sought after by collectors today.
