Overview
Original Kutani porcelain village with working kilns and five-color painting workshops since the 1650s.
The original production village for Kutani porcelain, where dozens of kilns have operated since the 1650s. Visit working studios, watch master painters apply the five-color Kutani palette, and try porcelain painting yourself.
Local tips
The village is 30 min from Kanazawa. Worth the trip for a quieter, more authentic Kutani experience than city studios.
