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 translucency. At the beginning of the Edo era (1616), the raw material for Arita porcelain was first found in Arita.
