Arita ware is a broad term for Japanese porcelain made in the area around the town of Arita, in the former Hizen Province, northwestern Kyushu island. This was the area where the great majority of early Japanese porcelain, especially Japanese export porcelain, was made. In English usage "Arita ware" was traditionally used for the export wares in blue and white porcelain, mostly copying Chinese styles.
