The word ‘MUTAN’ means silent start, or creation beyond selfness. We are artisans. Our satisfaction from everyday practice, behavior and breathing of past artisans which could be seen from plenty of old works in the stone storage, silent conversation between the artisans; we would like to inherit all these things and express them in our creation at present. Wishing in this way, we named our new gallery ‘MUTAN’.
Here, we would like to convey unknown values of Kutani ware to users directly from artisans, and explore a pleasure of lifestyle with Kutani ware together.https://mutangallery.com/
