Introduction to Kutani ware techniques: Ginsai A supreme color that cannot be expressed in words. The design is made of transparent glaze or five-colored glaze applied over silver foil. It is characterized by its subdued brilliance, gentle shine, and glass-like texture. Contrary to its gorgeous appearance, which requires firing it in the kiln more times than usual, it is a rather elaborate method. *Accurately, it is not silver leaf. Because thin silver foil would melt, this is a very luxurious technique in which the foil is made approximately 7 times as thick as silver foil.
Kutani ware is highly regarded around the world as one of Japan's three major colored porcelains, and as Japan's representative traditional craft, ``Japan Kutani.''
