This is a work by the 13th Sakaida Kakiemon, a great potter in the world of modern Arita pottery who made an enormous contribution to the revival and further development of modern Kakiemon ware, and who, in his pursuit of the classical style of successive Kakiemon wares, achieved the revival of the extraordinary technique of "Nigote," which is considered the ultimate art and had become lost in the mid-Edo period.
