佐賀有田 柿右衛門窯の工房見学が新しく加わりました!

The Kakiemon Kiln Workshop in Arita, Saga, is now offering a brand-new experience!

November 25, 2024
In the mid-17th century, Kakiemon’s vividly painted porcelain became highly prized by European royalty and nobility. Its warm, soft white porcelain body, combined with asymmetrical designs that made excellent use of empty space, set a trend that later greatly influenced the birth of European porcelain, including Meissen.

The grounds of the Kakiemon Kiln feature an exhibition hall, workshop, kilns, and thatched-roof houses, harmonizing beautifully with the surrounding hills to create a bright and tranquil atmosphere. Come and discover the secrets behind the creation of these stunning porcelains, born from this remarkable place.
