Satsuma pottery originated in the Satsuma province of Japan (present-day Kagoshima prefecture) during the late 16th century. The style is characterized by a cream-colored, crackled glaze and intricate hand-painted designs featuring figures, landscapes, and flora. Koshida is a well-known Satsuma pottery maker that has been producing ceramics since the Meiji era (1868-1912). It is particularly renowned for its intricate designs, delicate color palette, and use of gold embellishments. Koshida Satsuma pieces often depict scenes from Japanese folklore, history, and mythology, as well as everyday life. Koshida Satsuma pieces can be identified by their signature "Koshida" mark on the base, which is typically written in kanji characters. These pieces are highly collectible and can be quite valuable, particularly those produced during the Meiji era, which are considered to be of the highest quality.
