The origin of the five spectacular Kutani colors At the upper reaches of the Daishouji River,deep in the mountains, there was once a village called Kutani. A stone monument bearing the inscription "Ko-Kutani kiln ruins" stands quietly in a clearing. It marks the spot where the Daishoji Clan(a branch of the Kaga Clan) established a kiln in about 1655,to make use of the local porcelain stone. The porcelain ware that was created there was later called "Ko-Kutani," and became the foundation for Japanese colored porcelain ware. Rich overglaze colors applied with fluid brushwork
