On April 18, 2025, Japanese Princess Kako visited the Kinzangama Kiln, a Kutani ware pottery workshop in Komatsu City, Ishikawa Prefecture. Princess Kako observed artisans applying gold leaf to pottery. The Noto Peninsula earthquake on January 1, 2024, also caused damage to the kiln, shattering many ceramic pieces.

The Kinzangama Kiln specializes in overglaze paintings of Kutani-yaki (Kutani ware). The Kinzangama Kiln was established over 100 years ago by the Yoshita family in Komatsu City, Ishikawa Prefecture. The kiln has been in operation since 1906, when its founder, potter Yoshita Shosaku, began producing ceramics here.

In the 17th century, Kutani-yaki was developed as official ceramics for the Lord of Kaga. It is characterized by delicate and refined designs, including multicolored overglaze paintings such as iroe and kinrande. Kutani ware has been widely exported since the Meiji period and is often referred to as "Japan Kutani."

    Très agréable de voir Kako porter une petite veste cintrée sur une robe de la même couleur mais dans du rouge -par exemple- elle aurait été parfaite surtout avec de nouvelles boucles d'oreilles !

    She comes across as such a sweetie. She’s always very well dressed, but I think she could wear anything and still look good with that smile and kindness radiating through.

    Needs a little spec of colour somewhere, like a scarf. If the outfit had been in another colour than beige would be okay monochrome

    Un peu dommage cette tenue toute beige, c'est trop terne pour elle.
    Avec une simple veste blanche elle serait plus lumineuse. Paloma.

    The cut of this ensemble is ideal but the colour is terribly bland. A summery scarf or other accessory would give some extra pep.

    Beautiful smile. Never puts a foot wrong. A little color of something would have made this outfit pop.
