Kutani-yaki are Japanese traditional ceramics that have 350 years production history in Ishikawa prefecture,
which is facing to the Japan Sea. Kutani-yaki is light but still solid. Kutani-yaki are beautifully painted
cups, dishes and ornaments. This time, we have select beautifully painted small cups (each about 300cc (10 fl oz)
capacity) suitable for drinking sake. These cups come with wooden boxes that are also painted by the
same artisans who painted the cups. The drawn pictures are birds, flowers and Japanese traditional motifs. Please take a visit at Kutani-yaki category.

| Yamanaka lacuerware tray |
Yamanaka lacquer wares are traditional craft products in Ishikawa prefecture. They strive to keep the natural tastes of woods. This time, we have selected some trays and cups that are made of woods grown in Japan. It is true that many Japanese wooden products are made from woods grown in North American continent these days, but we have selected regional products to offer Japanese local taste.
According to a study, lacuerwares have a strong antibacterial effect and they restrain the growth of bacteria. Lacuerwares made from100% natural strongly fight against E coli and aureus, and are free from environmental hormones.
Again, for maintaining the crafts, please don not wash the product in a dishwasher.
