Awata ware
Awata ware (粟田焼, Awata-yaki) is a type of Japanese pottery that is a form of Kyō ware from Kyoto.[1]
It is related to other Kyō wares such as Mizoro ware and Kiyomizu ware, but denotes the kiln it originates from.
The origin lies in the Awataguchi area of Kyoto.[2]
Awata kilns also produced Satsuma ware at one point.[3]
