Arita, finest Japanese porcelain

Arita porcelain is a generic term for porcelain produced in Arita-cho, Saga Prefecture. It is characterized by both its highest quality and its widely appreciated aesthetics. Arita porcelain is hard and resistant, as white porcelain is admired for its high transparency, which almost gives the feeling of transparency. At the beginning of the Edo era (1616) in Arita was first found the raw material for Arita porcelain.
