Sencha Set Description: The Kenjo Karako (tribute children) design refers to Mikawachi ware, which, since the Edo period, was a designated kiln for the Hirado domain, producing tribute items for the shogunate and the Imperial Court. Protected by the domain, they pursued high-quality pottery without sparing time, techniques, or materials. The designs traditionally feature "Karako-e" (children figures), which have been painted on Mikawachi ware. Other motifs include plants, animals, and various other subjects. "Karako-e" was called "Kenjo Karako-zu" (tribute children picture) in the Edo period, and the "Seven Children Picture" was drawn as a tribute item by order of the domain. This "Karako-e" remains a representative design of Mikawachi ware's distinctive patterns even today. Size (approx. cm): Please note that these are amateur measurements, so there may be some errors.
