{"product_id":"倉敷意匠-kata-kata-印判手大皿-青猫","title":"Kurashiki design kata kata seal plate (blue cat)","description":"*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.\n\u003cbr\u003ePlates 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\u003cbr\u003ePlease consider that these elements of Shira must be included.\n\u003cbr\u003eIn that sense, Inban hand plates are not suitable for customers who prefer a perfect finish.\n\u003cbr\u003eHowever, for customers with specific tastes, even the flaws can be endearing and attractive, making it a one-of-a-kind piece.\n\u003cbr\u003eProduct specifications: Width approx. 21.5 x Height approx. 12 x Height approx. 2 cm Porcelain Aichi Prefecture\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 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.\n\u003cbr\u003eAs 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.\n\u003cbr\u003eWhen 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.\u003cbr\u003eI think this is a big appeal of Katakata.\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNow, this time, we asked Mr. Katakata to design the \"Inban-te\" plate.\n\u003cbr\u003e``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.\n\u003cbr\u003eAs a result, painted porcelain vessels were distributed all over Japan, and the eating habits of the common people underwent a major transformation.\n\u003cbr\u003eAlthough 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.\n\u003cbr\u003eHowever, 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.\u003cbr\u003eEven if I couldn't do it, I still wanted to make pottery using this technique.\n\u003cbr\u003eThe 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.\n\u003cbr\u003ePattern printing, which is one of the stamping techniques, is a type of dyeing, so I thought that I could make wonderful plates with Katakata.\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduct code: classiky-94722-15\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003cp\u003eJAN code: 4539745056226\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e","brand":"officejapan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39703978639553,"sku":"classiky-94722-15","price":2640.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/9335\/9809\/products\/imgrc0075285885.jpg?v=1757301813","url":"https:\/\/office-japan.jp\/en\/products\/kurashiki-design-kata-kata-seal-plate-blue-cat","provider":"OfficeJapan オフィスジャパン","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
