ISSHŌCHI Yaki (一勝池焼) - Ceramics of Kumamoto Prefecture

 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.
