Wonderful blue & white porcelain painted using a cutting edge Mino-yaki painting technique called the "inglaze transfer technique". By painting the picture beneath the overglaze, the surface will always retain a deep blue luster.
Widely loved as the safest tableware under the Food Sanitation Law. This item has an auspicious "Shonzui" pattern passed down since ancient times in a modern arrangement. The fine blue & white porcelain which goes all the way from the top edge to the bottom edge gives the flowers decorated in this a gorgeous appearance.

It was in the Momoyama era that it flourished because of the tea ceremony typified by Shino and Oribe. Since then, it has been a famous pottery production place which produces more than 50% of the gross domestic product.
