錦山窯は、霊峰白山から日本海に広がる加賀平野の中程にあります。山々から上る朝日の清らかで神聖な光をモチーフとし描いたのが「ホワイトブレス」。白い色で描かれた模様は、錦山窯の「孔雀図飾皿」などの縁模様によく見られます。今回は新たに白と金だけで描いてみました。淡いグレイ色の九谷の素地に純白の絵の具で描かれた模様は、光と陰影の微かなコントラストを生み出し、上品でエレガントな印象を与えます。

Kinzangama Kiln is located in the middle of Kaga Plain, spreading from Sacred Mount Haku to Sea of Japan. In this ‘White Bless’ collection, a pure and sacred light of the morning sun rising from mountains is drawn. Patterns drawn in white are typical in rim decorations of our plates with design of peacocks. Here only white and gold are adopted newly. Patterns in a pure white pigment on a light grey Kutani ground, having a slight contrast between light and shadow, give an elegant and sophisticated impression.
