The Continental Roots of Arita Porcelain
Although Japan was a latecomer to the production of porcelain among East Asian countries, its high quality and innovative decoration eventually exerted a tremendous impact on the development and appreciation of porcelain around the world. The earliest porcelain known in Japan was imported from China, but the first craftsmen to make it there were of Korean origin, not Chinese. This presentation will examine the details of how porcelain technology came to Japan, and how stylistic precedents on the continent combined with native cultural requirements to influence not only the early development of Japanese porcelain, but continuing imports of Chinese porcelain as well.
