He has inherited the traditional Kakiemon style into the modern era, and has further evolved the muddy style established by his predecessor to produce wonderful works with outstanding depiction and high sense. This is a work by the 14th generation Sakaida Kakiemon, a leading figure who has made great achievements, including being designated a Living National Treasure for Arita ware colored porcelain.

Pine pattern is one of the most popular paintings, painted with light and free brush strokes and a clean and refreshing color scheme on a milky white porcelain base with three sides. It is a superb masterpiece with a powerful shape that is perfectly balanced, vivid and realistic painting, densely drawn but with beautiful white space. The works of the fourteenth generation, who carry the history of Arita for 400 years, continue to receive high praise even now.
