The Story Of Imari
Fired in the kilns of Arita, Japan, eight miles south of the seaport town after which it was named, Imari porcelain is distinguished by the beautiful visual effects produced by its blue underglaze and colour overglaze enamels. This work describes the cultural and historical significance of these prized porcelain bowls, plates, vases, and teacups.
