Eiraku Ware:
This refers to a style of Japanese ceramics, particularly porcelain, that originated in Kyoto during the late Muromachi period.
Eiraku Hozen:
A prominent figure in Eiraku ware, Hozen was the eleventh-generation master of the Nishimura family, known for his high-quality ceramics and the use of the "Eiraku" seal on his works after 1827.
Distinctive Features:
Eiraku ware is often recognized by its decorative style, which can include elaborate gold patterns on a red ground (kinrande) and influences from Chinese porcelain styles.
