OKURA BLUE ROSE - the design representing Okura Art China has its history of more than half a century and has been popular with the deep and delicate cobalt blue.

With the deep cobalt blue only available with Okura, the beauty of a blue rose drawn on a pure white base is outstanding.
BLUE ROSE (8211): an impressive design with a large single rose flower. All-time popular series since introduced in 1954.
A unique technique known as “OKAZOME” is used to create the “mystic blue” coloration. Cobalt blue patterns are painted on the pre-fired white porcelain cups before firing for a second time at a high temperature of 1460℃. In the kiln, the cobalt blue paint sinks into the glaze softening the finish & adding a deep beauty to the design. Contrasting strikingly while adding a beautiful shimmer to the white porcelain, the handles and edges are hand-painted in genuine gold (23k). Superb.
