The exhibition features "Kokutani," which was fired in the early Edo period and is highly valued as an antique work of art, and "Revival Kutani," which emerged in the 18th century.
The ancient Kutani style, which became the basis of modern Kutani ware, disappeared within a few decades. About 100 years later, Aoki Mokubei was invited by the Kaga domain to open a kiln in Kanazawa, and the revival of Kutani began. After that, famous kilns were opened one after another in Kaga, and many kinds of masterpieces were produced.
In this exhibition, you can enjoy the unique characteristics of each of the following kilns: Kokutani Kiln, Ono Kiln, Rendaiji Kiln, Aote Kokutani Kiln, Aoya Kiln, and Miyamoto Kiln.
