Isshōchi Yaki seems to be a branch of Shodai Yaki. It originated in the 18th century but died out during the Meiji period. It was resurrected in 1935 but died out again. The latest revival was by Narita Katsuto but he died leaving no successor and so the kiln was abandoned once again.
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.
