Rakuzan Yaki is a fun kind of ceramics. Actually raku means fun...and this certainly is. It is probably most famous for the crabs that look like they are crawling out of the sand in many of the ceramics. The common 3D shrine ware is often confused with Banko ware. So not to be confused, there is also another Rakuzan ware made in Izumo which is associated with Fujina ware.
