Talking about Japanese Porcelain ~ Ware Full Cultural Creation

Talking about Japanese porcelain, it is necessary to talk about Japanese culture from the Japanese culture, talking about Japanese culture, many people must know that Japanese culture and Chinese culture has a profound origin such as imitation of the Chinese characters of the type of creation of hiragana katakana, penetration of Zen in the Japanese aesthetics, the Japanese porcelain production process connotations,, and so on, these and Chinese civilization have a very deep origin

Japanese porcelain, the more high-end The price is Mino-yaki, Shinra-yaki these. Mino-yaki is a tableware assembly line products, but the advantage is cheap, practical. The biggest benefit of Mino-yaki is that it can go into the microwave, followed by Kogota-yaki and Shinra-yaki. Kogota in Kyushu, the pattern is more plain, more Japanese, not many people buy in China, more niche. Shinra-yaki toy ornaments and flowers, is the civilian porcelain sales in the better, especially the Chinese zodiac series and figure series.

Next is more ornamental than functional. Come to talk about its spring kiln, but its spring is actually also out of the very awesome wine set, is the style of very gorgeous but not lose the beauty of Qing Yu porcelain, should be very famous in Japan. But the price is not cheap. It is characterized by its gilding.

Then again, relatively speaking, is considered more expensive porcelain. That is, usually what you see on the bottom of the bowl is not the brand or x Tianyao, but the name of the kiln factory. When I buy porcelain now, I also look at the kiln factory.

The first one mentioned is definitely Arita-yaki. It's kind of the number one kiln in the south. Arita burn most of the actually cheaper than expected, ordinary small and medium-sized vessels are generally in the tens to between one and two hundred, in fact, Arita burn below a lot of many factions, in the end, who counts who's branch, I see the Japanese themselves can not tell the difference between the silly. Particularly famous, such as Gui Wanli, Kutani-yaki, these basically should be regarded as a line of Arita-yaki, but Kutani-yaki is too famous, a lot of people will be divided out of it. Simply put, just remember that Arita-yaki is more plain and Kutani-yaki is more flowery.

Personally, I prefer Arita-yaki, because the texture and artistic flavor is closer to Chinese porcelain, I personally do not like Kutani-yaki, I think it is too colorful. Of course, I have friends who love Kutani-yaki, and there are a lot of good color kilns in Arita-yaki, but they may be particularly small, so you need to go to your local area to collect them. If you're busy and don't have the time, you can reach out to me and exchange ideas together sometime.
