Takatori ware

Takatori ware (高取焼, Takatori-yaki) is a stoneware ceramic type made in Fukuoka Prefecture.

History

The Japanese ceramic known as Takatori ware was founded by Korean potters brought to Japan at the end of the sixteenth century in the Japanese invasions of Korea (1592–1598). From its founding until 1871, Takatori ware production was controlled and patronized by the Kuroda, lords of Chikuzen Province (now Fukuoka Prefecture). The earliest known kiln was built at the base of Mt. Takatori in Chikuzen between 1600 and 1606.[1](p20) Over the course of the seventeenth century, the site of Takatori production moved five times. In 1716, the workshop and kiln were moved to the Nishijin area west of the Kuroda castle at Fukuoka; there production remained until the abolition of the domain system in 1871. Later, probably in the nineteenth century, the Takatori style became known as one of the Seven Famous Kilns of Enshu, which made wares following the preferences of the tea ceremony master Kobori Enshū.[2]

gollark: Anyway, what do the wise people of this channel think I should do regarding this? I can probably:- ignore the hypothetical capacitor and hope it hypothetically exploding is not important and has not caused/will not cause other damage- send it in for repair under the standard warranty and suffer for some time- upgrade the warranty (fairly cheap) for onsite support, somehow resolve logistical issues surrounding this, and have it maybe get fixed- borrow equipment from somewhere to attempt repairs myself
gollark: The "Ackerman routing protocol" was entirely made up, so yes, that is to be expected.
gollark: (this is over *LAN*; powerline adapters over really bad wiring or something)
gollark: I know exactly what the issue is, I just can't do anything about it.
