*The printing method used for this product, the copperplate transfer method used by Inhante, involves transferring the design from a transfer paper printed on Japanese paper with a pigment called Gosu to the unglazed fabric.
Plates with stamps made by copperplate transfer have many defects such as fading, cutting, bleeding, fading, and uneven coloring due to manual work. There are individual differences between each plate, but somehow
Please consider that these elements of Shira must be included.
In that sense, Inban hand plates are not suitable for customers who prefer a perfect finish.
However, for customers with specific tastes, even the flaws can be endearing and attractive, making it a one-of-a-kind piece.
Product specifications: Width approx. 9.8 x Height approx. 15.8 x Height approx. 1.5 cm Porcelain Aichi Prefecture
Product description: “Inban-te” plate made with Katakata-san

The dyed fabrics created by Kata Kata, a dyeing unit run by husband and wife Takeshi Matsunaga and Chie Takai, adhere to traditional techniques, but their design style is full of unique worldviews.
As you say, you can feel the story in each pattern, as you say that you try to create a design that creates a conversation and allows you to imagine the story when you unfold the cloth.
When a husband-and-wife team makes things, it seems like there is often a division of roles, with each person taking charge of their area of ​​expertise, but in the case of Katakata, each person creates their own designs, and the dyeing work is done by the two of them working together in pairs. While creating a wide range of variations due to the design of two people, the unit maintains a sense of unity with an exquisite balance.
I think this is a big appeal of Katakata.

Now, this time, we asked Mr. Katakata to design the "Inban-te" plate.
``Inban-te'' refers to painting using printing methods such as ``stencil printing'' and ``copperplate transfer.'' It is a technique that rapidly developed after the Meiji period, enabling manual mass production without the need for a professional illustrator.
As a result, painted porcelain vessels were distributed all over Japan, and the eating habits of the common people underwent a major transformation.
Although it was called painting by printing, this method at the time was prone to many defects such as fading, bleeding, color loss, and uneven coloring in the design, and in recent years it has become a technique that is only used in a limited number of cases.
However, among those who like pottery, there are those who think that its flaws are part of its charm, and that is its charm.Of course, Kurashiki Design is also in the same category as these people, but it is important to unify the finish to a uniform finish.
Even if I couldn't do it, I still wanted to make pottery using this technique.
The ideal dish would be a plate with an irregular, rustic flavor that was the same as that time, but with a more modern design, and one that could not be easily identified as being from any country.
Pattern printing, which is one of the stamping techniques, is a type of dyeing, so I thought that I could make wonderful plates with Katakata.

The result was a stamp plate created using the copperplate transfer method. As expected, the result was a lot of fun and story-filled plates. I think it will be useful every day as a container that will spark conversation every time you sit around the dinner table.





*The copperplate decalcomania of the seal way that is the print technique of this product moves a pattern to the unglazing cloth from the transfer paper which I printed on Japanese paper in a color called the asbolite (Gosse) and is a taker.
Many faults such as cassoulet and sharpness, a blur, color omission, the uneven coloring of the pattern to come out of manual labor are seen in the plate of the seal hand by the copperplate transcription. There is the individual difference in each dish, what is it?
Please think that the Shiranoshita element includes it by all means.
The seal hand plate does not turn to the perfect finish to a favorite visitor in this sense.
However, it is the thing almost the container which is the one and only that even the fault is endearing for a visitor with preference of a certain kind identification, and is attractive, and thinks.
Product specifications: Wide approximately 9.8* length approximately 15.8* approximately 1.5cm in height porcelain Aichi
Product explanation: Plate of "the seal hand" making and rattle-rattle

The dyeing cloth which printing unit "kata kata" (rattle-rattle) by Takeshi Matsunaga and the Takai wisdom couple produces overflows in an original view of the world in design-style while following traditional technique.
A story is felt by each that it is likely as it is said to imagine when I opened cloth when a conversation keeps a created design in mind.
In the case of the crafting with the couple unit, I say role allotment or think that it is often said that an individual is in charge of expertise, but it is different in the case rattle-rattle, and both sides each designs it by oneself, and the work of the dyeing is form that two are pairs and cooperate. I keep the united feeling of 1 unit with exquisite balance while keeping the expanse of the design variation of two people
I think that is's big charm rattle-rattle.

By the way, it is the one which asked for the design of the plate of the "seal hand" rattle-rattle this time.
When "I print a paper pattern" (technique of the stencil), and "a seal hand" has a specialized painting craftsman about painting with the print including "copperplate transcription", I enable mass production of the manual industry and am the technique that developed rapidly after the Meiji era.
A container of the painting porcelain overhauls in the all over Japan, and eating habits-style of general public will in this way accomplish a big change.
It was easy to produce many faults such as a blur, color omission, uneven coloring in a pattern, and, in this technique at the time, it has been an in late years limited technique performed only with several even if I said painting with the print.
However, in the container enthusiast, the fault be called the taste, and the people thinking that it is attractive are, and of course it is the same kind, but they unify the Kurashiki designs in the uniform finish with the people
Even if there was not a thing, after all I wanted to make a container with this technique.
But, as for the taste that was simple with unevenness, the pattern was more modern as those days, and the plate of the seal hand which was not decided with the design of what country either was an ideal.
The paper pattern woodcut print that was one of the seal technique thought that, a wonderful plate made it, and they went rattle-rattle if I said because it was a kind of printing.

And it is a seal hand plate of the copperplate transcription technique to have been completed. It was fun, and a lot of plates which overflowed in a story were born as expected. As the caliber who draws a conversation whenever I surround the dining table, he/she may play an active part every day.
