Mikawachi porcelain, also known as Hirado ware, is a renowned type of Japanese porcelain that originates from the Hirado region of Nagasaki Prefecture, Japan. This exquisite porcelain is celebrated for its delicate, translucent white body and its intricate, finely detailed underglaze blue or celadon designs. Hirado porcelain has a long history, dating back to the early 18th century, and was often produced for both domestic and export markets. Its pieces are highly sought after for their exceptional craftsmanship and timeless beauty. The precise artistry of Hirado porcelain continues to be appreciated and revered in the world of ceramics.
Atop this delicate open-work incense burner sits a Chinese lion dog. In use, the smoke that gently flows out of the openwork creates a cloud upon which the dog appears to sit. A fun and interesting piece.
