The Kutani Crane pattern is one of the most iconic designs produced by Wedgwood, a prestigious English maker of fine bone china and porcelain. The Kutani Crane pattern takes inspiration from traditional Japanese Kutani ware, renowned for its vibrant colors and intricate detailing. The central motif features a graceful crane surrounded by exotic flowers and foliage, symbolizing longevity, good fortune, and peace in Japanese culture.
The pattern is set on fine white bone china with a beautifully detailed crane in the center surrounded by lush floral designs.
The outer rim is decorated with an intricate lattice design in soft greens and pinks, bordered with gilded accents.
Wedgwood introduced the Kutani Crane pattern in the mid-20th century and continued its production for several decades. It has since been discontinued but remains highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts.
Pieces are typically marked with the Wedgwood logo, "Bone China," "Made in England," and the pattern name "Kutani Crane" followed by the pattern number (R4464). These markings confirm authenticity.
