Hi, I am looking for the middle kanji in Kutani Wata xx sei. I guess it is
''no'' but this particular form of the character does not exist.

Thanks




It is 「{の}」, which is a variant of 「野{の}」.

Thus, 「綿」 is indeed read 「わたの」.

「綿野/綿」 was the name of a major porcelain dealer that exported the famous
[九谷焼{くたにやき} (Kutani ware)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kutani_ware) to other
countries

For the advanced learners, another variant of 「野」, which you will encounter
far more often than you will 「」 would be 「埜」.
