Although it was known as Imari ware or Hizen ware during the Edo period, the term ‘Arita ware’ came into general use during the Meiji period. When Toyotomi Hideyoshi sent his armies into Korea at the end of the 16th century, the Nabeshima lord forced the Korean potter Yi Sam-pyeong (Kanagae Sanbei in Japanese) and his apprentices to relocate to his domain in Japan. Kanagae is said to have moved to Arita at the beginning of the 17th century, where he discovered high-quality porcelain stone at Izumiyama. Celebrated as the birthplace of Japanese porcelain, Arita has produced tableware, art crafts and expressive works in ceramic for over 400 years, and this tradition continues on to the present day.
