Ceramics of Japan and East Asia
January 2–March 22, 2027
Ceramics|3F-1 gallery
Ceramics are not only admired for their beauty but are also broadly used in daily life, making them one of the most familiar forms of decorative arts. East Asian ceramics in particular feature a rich variety of patterns, forms, and colors, and have equally wide-ranging uses. Additionally, the type of ware (such as earthenware or porcelain), clay, glazes, decor, and firing techniques each vary depending on the region of production. Focusing on Japan, China, and the Korean Peninsula, this gallery presents a diverse selection of East Asian ceramics, showcasing their distinctive qualities and artistic appeal.

Ceramics of Japan and East Asia
January 2–March 22, 2027
Ceramics|3F-1 gallery
Ceramics are not only admired for their beauty but are also broadly used in daily life, making them one of the most familiar forms of decorative arts. East Asian ceramics in particular feature a rich variety of patterns, forms, and colors, and have equally wide-ranging uses. Additionally, the type of ware (such as earthenware or porcelain), clay, glazes, decor, and firing techniques each vary depending on the region of production. Focusing on Japan, China, and the Korean Peninsula, this gallery presents a diverse selection of East Asian ceramics, showcasing their distinctive qualities and artistic appeal.
