So-called Kutani was believed to have its original kiln at Kutani village in the mountain in the Kaga province. So, a term, "Kutani" is being used to name the products of this Kaga region. To make it simple, Kaga is a name of area, Kutani is a product name. The mark,painted on the bowl, Kaga Kutani, sujests, Kutani porcelain from Kaga kilns 1890-1920 during the late Meiji -Taisho period. Best Regards, Emiko Post a Response |
