It was in this town, in the year 1616, that the Koreans first introduced the art of porcelain pottery to Japan.
“1616/ Arita” are two contemporary porcelain collections, which have been created by Japanese design and art director of 1616/ Teruhiro Yanagihara and Dutch Designers Scholten & Baijings:
Teruhiro Yanagihara designed the Standard-Series and at the same time invited Dutch designers Scholten & Baijings to develop their own line named Colour Porcelain.
