Kakiemon XIV (Living National Tresure), Pear of Peony-Motif Yunomi Tea Cups
The 14th-generation Kakiemon (1934–2013) was designated a Living National Treasure in 2001. This pair of yunomi teacups is the work of a master who carried the long tradition of the Kakiemon kiln into the modern era, faithfully preserving its pristine white porcelain and refined overglaze painting techniques.
The design features elegantly rendered botan (peony) motifs, expressed with restraint to highlight the luminous white ground. With the clarity and disciplined brushwork characteristic of the Kakiemon style, the peonies appear vivid yet imbued with a quiet, contemplative beauty upon the porcelain surface.
Founded in Arita in the 17th century, the Kakiemon kiln is internationally renowned for its profound influence on European porcelain culture. Through exports by the Dutch East India Company, its works inspired major European manufactories such as Meissen and Vienna.
This pair of yunomi embodies the harmony and elegance cultivated over more than 350 years of tradition, as well as the distinguished lineage of the Kakiemon family. It is not only a functional vessel but also an heirloom-worthy work of art.
We are pleased to offer this pair of Kakiemon yunomi teacups, which I purchased as part of my personal collection ten years ago, on the occasion of launching our new shopping site. The pieces are in completely unused condition. The hallmark of the Kakiemon style is said to lie in its exquisite use of negative space. We invite you to take this opportunity to add a pair of yunomi crafted by Kakiemon—arguably one of the most renowned names in Japanese porcelain—to your own collection. This style of paired yunomi continues to be produced today. For more information about the Kakiemon kiln, please refer to the following URL. https://onlineshop.kakiemon.co.jp
