More than 260 years have passed since the kiln was built in Arita, the birthplace of porcelain. Gen'emon Kiln has inherited the ancient techniques and spirit of Ko-Imari.
At every stage of the process, from the wheel, underglaze painting, main kiln, overglaze painting, to the overglaze kiln, highly skilled and specialized potters in each field use the best materials. We put our heart and soul into each and every piece we make. (From the Gen'emon Kiln website)

Gen'emon Kiln is counted as one of the three great porcelain kilns of Arita, alongside Kakiemon Kiln and Imaemon Kiln.
The series of steps, starting with kneading the clay, then planing, wheel-throwing, underglaze painting, firing in the kiln, and overglaze painting, It has been passed down from generation to generation through the painstaking traditional craftsmanship of artisans.

This vase is boldly dyed with a plum blossom design, one of the representative designs that has been produced at Gen'emon Kiln since ancient times.
The piece has a rich expression that makes use of the artist's skilled brushwork, and you can enjoy the beautiful contrast of the indigo blue against the white porcelain.

There are no cracks, chips or other damage and it is in generally good condition.
We would like to sell this item to someone who understands that it is a second-hand item.
