Chosen Karatsu ceramics are a specific type of Japanese pottery known for their rustic elegance and historical significance. Originating from the Karatsu region in Kyushu, Japan, Chosen Karatsu ceramics have been produced since the late 16th century. The name "Chosen" refers to Korea, reflecting the influence of Korean pottery techniques brought to Japan by Korean potters during the Japanese invasions of Korea in the late 16th century.
