Excerpt from Information Relating to the Pottery Industry in Japan The distinction made in the Questionnaire between China and General earthenware is difficult to observe in dealing with Japanese ceramics. The Japanese distinguish between Earthenware, which corresponds to the English classification, and porcelain. Intermediate between these two is the modern manufacture (confined to one or two firms) of what is called in Japan Hard Earthenware, a generic term corresponding to faience or semi-porcelain but commercially applied t0'an Ironstone China. Apart from this, there is very little export ware that would come under the heading General Earthenware in Japan, and the following account may be taken to refer to China Porcelain) exclusively unless otherwise specifically stated.

Excerpt from A Vindication of the Decorated Pottery of Japan One word more. Your reviewer remarks upon the translations of the numerous marks and signatures which I have given, without, however, pointing out any errors. The perfect transliteration of the characters used by Japanese potters is a matter on which no foreigner living may dogmati'ze, indeed, various meanings may properly be assigned to many of these characters; but I feel no doubt whatever that the renderings of the marks in my volume are substantially correct, for they have been passed under review by four accomplished native scholars.

The Japanese Pottery Handbook, first published by Kodansha in 1979, has become a classic, beloved by anyone interested in pottery for its practical, step-by-step approach, and homespun charm. Now, thirty-five years since its publication, authors Penny Simpson and Lucy Kitto have refreshed their work, expanding and adding to the material, re-designing the pages, and re-drawing many of the delightful illustrations. The book has a cleaner, more modern look, yet retains the simple, friendly, and distinctively Japanese sensibility of the original. In addition to the new layout and drawings, the authors have tweaked the text and expanded several sections (including the discussion of underglazing and overglazing, and the Tea Ceremony and its utensils). There’s also a new page showing different types of brushes; and the Information chapter has been updated to include websites and recent books. The book is a manual to the way pots are made in Japan, their forms, and their decorations.The authors give a thorough account of both traditional and modern techniques and also describe in detail tools, materials, glazes, and the setup of workshops and kilns. Lucy Kiitto’s sprightly drawings infuse each page with life and clarity. Pottery terms and expressions are listed with their Japanese equivalents, and the new edition keeps the bi-lingual text, making it easier for the exchange of ideas between foreign students studying in Japan and Japanese potters.
