Kakiemon XIV inherited the traditional Kakiemon style in the modern age, further evolved the muddy technique established by his predecessors, and produced excellent works with outstanding descriptive ability and a high sense of style. The masterful Kakiemon Sakaida 14th Kakiemon has made great achievements, including being recognized as a Living National Treasure of Arita-yaki porcelain in overglaze enamels.

This work is an incense container in the shape of a persimmon, which looks so real that it could be mistaken for a genuine piece. This work is more than enough to understand the high level of Kakiemon's pottery techniques.

The works of the fourteenth generation, who has carried the 400-year history of Arita on his shoulders, continue to receive ever-increasing acclaim, and are sure to attract even greater attention in the future.
