Sakura Yaki is ceramics made on the volcanic island near Kagoshima. The Ougaku kiln is completely run by women which is somewhat unusual in Japan.

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 NO LONGER ANSWER QUERIES ON PERSONAL PIECES. I DO NOT GIVE VALUATIONS.
