Raku ware started with the first generation of the Raku family, Chojiro, during the Momoyama period in 16th-century Japan. Since that time, successive generations of the family have continued to pass on the unique tradition and techniques behind the production of these highly sought-after ceramics to the present day. Even the production and firing methods are still the same as they were 450 years ago. Through numerous photographs with accompanying commentary, this newly revised edition of this publication traces the aesthetic sensibilities and works of every single generation of the Raku family, from its beginnings in the 16th century through its modern practice in the 21st century.
