Mishima ware is produced by the application of patterns or other designs via stamps or carving to leather hard ware, which is followed by a layer of white slip. The white slip is then wiped or scraped off, revealing the inlay design, and a thin layer of clear feldspar or ash glaze is applied. Production of this style of Karatsu ware began during the Edo period.
