Product Description

Diameter|20.5CM Height|3CM Era|Meiji Era Diameter|20.5CM Height|3CM Era|Meiji Era White Satsuma was first produced in the early Edo period. Due to its precious raw materials and delicate appearance, it was a high-end product among the Satsuma clan and was loved by high-status people. Even after the Meiji Restoration, as a Japanese export, it became quite popular among European aristocrats and wealthy families. The "precious raw material" refers to soil. Since the white soil that is the raw material of Shiratatsuma is only available in a few places in Satsuma (Kagoshima), Shiratsatsuma itself is considered a valuable item. The "slim appearance" refers to the fine cracks on the surface. This kind of crack is called "penetration" and is caused by the difference in shrinkage between the soil part and the glaze (the part with a smooth surface). Other pottery would be considered a failure if it had cracks, but White Satsuma has its "flavor" only if it is penetrated.
