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.

The "Flower and Grass Design" is a popular subject, painted with light, free-flowing brushstrokes and a clean, unobtrusive color scheme on a milky white, three-sided, opaque base.

The works of the Juyondai, which carry the 400-year history of Arita, continue to receive increasing praise and will continue to attract a lot of attention in the future.
