Owari Shippo

Japanese: 尾張七宝 - おわりしっぽう
Owari Shippo
A regional brand of the Tokai region, Aichi prefecture.
It is produced in Shippo-cho, Kaifu County, Nagoya City, and Kiyosu City. It is said to have originated during the Tenpo era (1830-1844) in the late Edo period, when Kaji Tsunekichi of Owari discovered the manufacturing method after coming across a Dutch cloisonné plate and made improvements to it. Wired cloisonné, in which silver is applied to the outline of the design, is a representative technique of Owari cloisonné. Current products include vases, sake vessels, pendants, and more. In April 1995, it was designated a traditional craft of Japan by the Minister of International Trade and Industry (currently the Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry).
