Kutani-yaki 九谷焼： Kutani is one of the pottery-producing regions known for Kutani-yaki, a type of Japanese ceramics. Kutani-yaki is produced in Ishikawa Prefecture, with Kutani City being particularly renowned as a major center for its production. Kutani-yaki is said to have been first fired in 1655 in Kutani Village, Echizen County, Kaga Province, during the early Edo period. It was commissioned by Maeda Toshitsugu, the lord of Oyamazaki Castle, to Gotō Saizaburō, a potter in his domain. Kutani-yaki is characterized by its richly colored glazes and bold, vigorous painting, distinguishing it from other overglaze enamel ceramics.
