| Satsuma Pottery |
| The Kagoshima pottery industry began in 1598, when Shimazu Yoshihiro, feudal load of Satsuma province, brought back several potters form Korea after the 1597-98 war. From then on for more than 400years , Satsuma-ware has been one of the prefecture's traditional arts. Satsuma-ware comes in two types: White Satsuma and Black Satsuma. In feudal times, the gorgeously painted White Satsuma With its characteristic network of fine cracks was used by the feudal lords for their vases, incense burners, and tea sets. Black Satsuma, however, is made from a dark-colored material and mainly used for practical everyday articles. The large number of beautiful White Satsuma-ware on this home page were painted with great care by myself, Nishida Akio, from anywhere over a few days to a few months It is my great pleasure that you can enjoy these pieces representing 30 years of my craftsmanship in this special White Satsuma gallery. This home page is made and managed by myself. I ask you not to reproduce these pictures without permission. Please enjoy the gallery. |
