This is not Japanese ceramic, it is made of cast iron, but it blends so well with my Japanese ceramic collection. It is a lantern. I think it has a lot of character!
You are invited to come along with me as I learn about Japanese ceramics. I will share what I learn about the kilns, history, terminology, potters, decorators, styles, and marks. This is a work in progress. ** NOTICE: I DO NOT ANSWER QUERIES ON PERSONAL PIECES. I DO NOT GIVE VALUATIONS. General comments and questions will still be accepted.
