Hagi ware is
a type of pottery that was established in Matsumoto, Hagi City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, by two Joseon potters, Ri Kyeong (Saka Koryozaemon) and Ri Shakwang (Sakakura Shinbei), under the protection of the Mori clan in the early Edo period after the Bunroku-Keicho Ware. It was later passed down to Fukagawa, Nagato City, and other areas.
Hagi tea bowls matched the Japanese wabi tea, and were loved by tea masters as the seven bowls of Hagi. They
were a good match with the white clay produced in Omichi, Hofu City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, which was the main ingredient. It
is still handed down as Matsumoto Hagi and Fukagawa Hagi.
[Matsumoto Hagi ware (Official kiln)]
The Saka family is a prestigious family of Matsumoto Official Kiln (Matsumoto Hagi).
In 1625, the second year of the Kanei era, Ri Kyeong was given the name "Koryozaemon" by the second feudal lord, Mori Hidenari, but he commonly called himself "Sukehachi."
After the first, the second, fifth and seventh generations of the family continued to use the name "Sukehachi", while the third, fourth, sixth and eighth generations continued to use the name "Shinbei", leading up to the Meiji era. The
second to eighth generations did not use the name "Komazaemon", but it has been used since the ninth generation of the family since the Meiji era.

during the Bunka and Bunsei eras (1804-1830), many porcelain kilns were established, but along with the Miwa family, they maintained their position as official kilns.
In 1826 (Bunsei 09), the feudal lord ordered Saka to serve Osaka, where he demonstrated his pottery skills in front of Prince Arisugawa in Kyoto. Saka
also researched and made copies of famous pieces in the Arisugawa family's collection. Saka Koryozaemon IX (real name Dosuke, pen names Hanpo and Hangaku)
is famous as a master craftsman who survived the turbulent period from the end of the Edo period to the Meiji period and contributed to the revival of Hagi ware. 1849 (Kaei 2) - 1921 (Taisho 10) Saka Koryozaemon IX was born as the grandson of Saka Koryozaemon 8. In 1877 (Meiji 10), he took the name Saka Koryozaemon IX. In 1915 (Taisho 4), his works exhibited at the Kyoto Exposition commemorating the enthronement of Emperor Taisho were purchased by the Imperial Household Ministry. As one of the young students at the Shoka Sonjuku school, Saka was trained just before Yoshida Shoin was escorted to Edo, and spent his youth in the midst of the changes of the Meiji Restoration. The Saka family, which was the official kiln of the Hagi domain, was forced to become independent and self-employed after the abolition of the domain and the establishment of prefectures, as they no longer received support from the domain. However, they overcame the crisis of the abolition of the official kiln and increased their fame by exhibiting at domestic expositions around the country. [10th Saka Koryozaemon (real name Hidesuke, pen name Kanho)] 1890 (Meiji 23) - 1958 (Showa 33) 1890 (Meiji 23) 10th Saka Koryozaemon was born in Hagi City, Yamaguchi Prefecture as the second son of the 9th Saka Koryozaemon. 1909 (Meiji 42) Dropped out of Yamaguchi Prefectural Hagi Junior High School and studied pottery under his father . 1914 (Taisho 3) The Frog Hermit ornament exhibited at the Taisho Exposition was purchased by the Imperial Household Ministry. 1915 (Taisho 4) Created a pair of vases to be presented to Hagi Town as a gift to celebrate the enthronement of Emperor Taisho. A confectionery bowl exhibited at the Kyoto Exposition commemorating the enthronement of Emperor Taisho was purchased by the Imperial Household Ministry. 1916 (Taisho 5) The Fukurokuju ornament was purchased by the Imperial Household Ministry. 1920 (Taisho 9) We produced a Takasago-no-Imperial Officer and an Oba ornament to be presented to Yamaguchi Prefecture as a gift for the wedding of His Imperial Highness Prince Yi. 1921 (Taisho 10) We took on the name of the 10th Saka Koryozaemon. 1922 (Taisho 11) The ornament was purchased by the Imperial Household Ministry when the Empress Dowager visited Kashii Shrine, and the water jar we exhibited at the Peace Memorial Tokyo Exposition. 1924 (Taisho 13) We produced a Takasago-no-Imperial Officer and an Oba ornament to be presented to Hagi-cho as a gift for the marriage of the current Emperor. The bancha tea utensil, kettle, and water pitcher were purchased by Empress Dowager Kitashirakawa on her visit to Hagi-cho. 1925 (Taisho 14) We produced a pair of matcha tea bowls to be presented to Hagi-cho on his visit to Yamaguchi Prefecture by Prince Chichibu. We received a silver medal at the Paris International Exposition of Decorative Arts and Crafts. He was appointed as a member of the Prince Shotoku Exhibition Committee and received an incense container from the president, Prince Kuni. In 1928 (Showa 3), he was allowed to make a personal gift to celebrate the enthronement of the Emperor. In 1943 (Showa 18), he was selected as a person qualified to preserve craft techniques. In 1946 (Showa 21), he made a matcha bowl to be presented to the city of Hagi when Prince Takamatsu visited the city, and in 1947 (Showa 22), he made a Tenjin-furo and a Fuji-gata kettle to be presented to Yamaguchi Prefecture when the Emperor visited Yamaguchi Prefecture. His creative philosophy against the heavy tradition of taking over the prestigious Hagi ware head family name from another family involved a strictness and responsibility that was different from that of the heads of other traditional kilns who inherited the family business by bloodline. [11th Saka Korazaemon (real name Nobuo, pen name Hanho)] 1912 (Meiji 45) - 1981 (Showa 56) Saka Korazaemon 11 was born in Yamaguchi Prefecture as the third son of Hayashi Risaku.
