* "This is a faience little known outside Japan. The manufacture was commenced about fifty years ago [1850?] in Osaka, at a place called Jiiso-mura, by a workman named Kikko. It was an exact imitation of the Raku ware of Kyoto, except that coloured glazes were used with greater freedom...The ware need not be further described, since it may be classed with the Raku faience of Kyoto."
