Kinrande (金襴手, literally "gold brocade") is a Japanese porcelain style where gold is applied on the surface and there are a number of variations. It originated from China during the Jiajing (1521–1566) and Wanli (1573–1620) periods of the Ming dynasty.[1][2][3]

In the late Edo period, Arita ware, Imari ware, Kotō ware,[4] Kutani ware, Kyō ware and Satsuma ware had pieces in this style.[5][6] Imari pieces in kinrande style were particularly popular in Baroque era Europe. King Augustus II the Strong of Poland amongst the foremost collectors.[7]

Typically, gold was added to Chinese wucai (五彩) palette, called gosai in Japanese, which had a white base with red, green, and yellow motifs. Other types of kinrande include:[8]

  • red base, multi-colored motifs and gold (赤地金襴手 akaji kinrande)
  • green base (緑地金襴手 ryokuji kinrande)
  • yellow base (黄地金襴手 ouji kinrande)
  • celadon base (白地金襴手 hakuji kinrande)
  • emerald base (瑠璃地金襴手 ruriji kinrande)
  • blue-and-white base (染付金襴手 sometsuke kinrande)
  • tricolour base (三彩金襴手 sancai kinrande)
