Utsurimono

Utsurimono literally translates as “reflections” or “reflecting ones”. This category is made up of three different color varieties. The first and foremost is the Shiro (white) Utsuri. The second variety is the Hi (fire or red) Utsuri. The third and most elusive is the Ki (yellow) Utsuri.

All three color variations are accentuated by a sumi (black) base which emerges from under the white, red, or yellow field to create a pattern that suggests the “reflection” of color on a black background.
