Kutani Kinpaku-Sai Wine Cup — Green & Gold-Leaf Porcelain Bowl on Gold-Toned Metal Stem (Ø 7.2 × H 15 cm, 2023)

A contemporary Kutani-yaki wine cup that pairs a hand-decorated porcelain bowl with a gold-toned metal stem and foot. The supplier's series name is 金箔彩 (kinpaku-sai / "gold-leaf-painted") — gold leaf is laid across the bowl in irregular torn-foil flakes, then sealed beneath a translucent sea-green tinted glaze, so the leaf reads as soft silvery-green where the glaze runs thickest and as warm bright gold where the glaze thins toward the rim. No two cups will look alike: the way the leaf overlaps is set by hand, sheet by sheet.

The form

Where most Kutani drinking vessels are short, this one stands. The porcelain bowl is set on a slim gold-toned metal stem and a wide circular foot — a 21st-century Western-wine-glass silhouette executed in Japanese craft. The underside of the metal foot is engraved with the word "KUTANI" in fine intaglio (visible in the bottom photo). The piece is part of a paired series with a red sister variant (kinpaku-sai red, sold separately).

Size

Diameter 7.2 cm × Height 15 cm (≈ 2.83 × 5.91 in) — overall height including the stem. The bowl holds roughly 100–140 ml of wine (capacity is approximate, not supplier-stated). Use it for table wine, dessert wine, sparkling sake (awa-sake), aperitifs, or for a single ceremonial pour after dinner.

Box

Arrives in the supplier's tan KUTANI-branded keshōbako (gift box), printed with traditional sayagata + sippō (seven-treasures) + honeycomb patterning — gift-ready for wedding, anniversary, housewarming, or Father's Day giving.

Care

The supplier does not specify microwave or dishwasher use, and the metal stem makes this piece absolutely incompatible with microwave — metal will arc, and the kinpaku gold leaf would not survive heat cycling. We recommend hand-wash only: warm water, mild dish soap, soft cloth; rinse and towel-dry promptly so water does not sit at the bowl-stem join. Because the leaf is laid by hand, slight differences in flake distribution, gold-density, and glaze pooling are part of how each piece is made.
