About Satumayaki

As Satsuma ware was manufactured under direct orders from the lord of the Satsuma Domain, it was considered o-niwa-yaki (meaning, pottery for the lord’s personal use alone). Excluding a brief period at the end of the Tokugawa shogunate during which Satsuma ware was exported to Europe, it was never available for purchase by the general public. It was manufactured exclusively for use by the lord of the domain, and used as tributes and gifts from the Satsuma Domain. The innumerable lines of crazing across its ivory-colored surface and intricate gold-leaf overglaze exude an air of refinement.
