Competition from mass produced ceramics means that kilns are struggling to survive. Some Kutani kilns experiment with modern techniques such as silk printing to transfer designs onto porcelain, which means that the prices can still be affordable, while the hand-crafted aspect is retained. One such example is Seikou kiln, which produces tableware for everyday use. Their patterns are transfer printed onto the porcelain, finished by hand, then glazed and fired again.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://musubikiln.com/collections/kutani-seikou-kiln" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://musubikiln.com/collections/kutani-seikou-kiln" rel="nofollow">https://musubikiln.com/collections/kutani-seikou-kiln</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
