The products made for Isetan, are inspired by classic kinomo patterns from the Tokyo based kimono workshop Futaba-en. From Anne´s previous visits to Futaba-en she has made a selection of patterns and translated these through hand painting to a number of hand thrown porcelain plates. 

The co-operation between Anne Black & Futuba-en is another example of Anne´s collaboration with Japanese designers and craftsmen, where she has previously also worked with minä perhonen on various projects. See more on Anne´s collaboration with minä perhonen and Akira Minagawa here
