【Coming Soon】Kakiemon Exhibit "Beauty in Everyday Life" 【Paris Venue】

Kakiemon Exhibit "Beauty in Everyday Life"

-Tokyo, Paris & New York Tour-

In the mid-17th century, the first Kakiemon recorded the "Aka-e Hajimari no 'Oboe'," marking the beginning of a unique history of porcelain known as the Kakiemon style. Approximately 400 years have passed since then. As the traditions passed down through generations blend into our contemporary daily lives, what new forms will they take?

This exhibition, in collaboration with the Kakiemon kiln Tokyo store, will showcase the unique charm of Kakiemon in a way that only AREA can offer, across three locations: AREA Tokyo, AREA Paris, and AREA New York. You will find a beautiful intersection of traditional crafts and modern living spaces, featuring dining tables and sideboards alongside luminous milky-white porcelain. Enjoy the fusion of everyday life space and traditional craftsmanship brought to you by AREA.

Starting Thursday, January 16th of next year, the exhibition at AREA Paris will officially open its doors. Once treasured by European royalty and nobility 400 years ago, Kakiemon porcelain returns to Paris—this time accompanied by the unique perspective of AREA.
We warmly invite you to visit AREA Paris and experience this exceptional showcase.
