Foo Dog Lion Statue Japanese Porcelain ware BIG KUTANI 

This image is a Foo dog lion of the Kutani ware.

The origin is Ko-Kutani.The history of Kutani ceramics dates back to the early Edo period, around the year 1655. Maeda Toshiharu, the first Lord of Daishoji (belonging to the Kaga-han), focused his attention on the development of pottery, although in the territory of Kutani (today: Kutani,Yamanaka Town,Ishikawa Prefecture) gold mines have been found. Toshiharu dispatched Goto Saijiro, who had been engaging in mining development and industry, to Hizen Arita, so that he could master their pottery technique. The establishment of an own Kutani kiln began with the adoption of this new skill.
The kilns in Kutani suddenly disappeared around 1730 but the reasons for this are still not exactly known. The ceramics fired during this period are now known as "Ko-Kutani". Representing Japanese Iro'e (multicolored over glazed) porcelain, it is highly rated for its unique, vigorous, formal beauty.
