Know before you buy
Kutani-yaki is a historic style of Japanese porcelain originating from Ishikawa prefecture in 1655. It is internationally recognized for its intricate, hand-painted designs and deep-rooted traditional craftsmanship.
Because each piece is individually crafted by artisans, there will be subtle variations in the brushwork and pattern placement. These slight differences are considered a hallmark of authentic, handmade ceramics rather than defects.
Yes, this is a functional ceramic vase designed to hold water. However, as with all fine porcelain, we recommend placing it on a stable surface and handling it with care to avoid accidental chips or cracks.
To preserve the hand-painted details and the finish, we recommend hand-washing the vase with mild soap and lukewarm water. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals, and always dry it thoroughly with a soft cloth.
The vase stands 9.84 inches tall with a diameter of 4.53 inches. Its proportions are specifically designed to serve as a balanced centerpiece for medium-sized floral arrangements.
