was a Japanese potter of the Edo period. Eisen was born in Kyoto, evidently the grandson of Chinese immigrants, and adopted into the Okuda family of pawnbrokers. Although he inherited the family business, at age 35 he devoted his attention to amateur pottery, and by the 1780s he was producing copies of late Ming-period enamelled porcelain. He also made ''kochi'' (polychrome ware), ''sometsuke'' (underglaze cobalt or blue-and-white) and ''ko akae'' (old red ware) as utensils for the tea ceremony and for drinking ''sencha'' (green tea). His disciples included Aoki Mokubei, Kinkodo Kamesuke (1764-1837), and Nin'ami Dohachi (1783-1855). == References == * Patricia Jane Graham, ''Tea of the Sages: The Art of Sencha'', University of Hawaii Press, 1998. * (Oxford Index entry ) * (Answers.com entry ) * (Library of Congress Name Authority File ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Okuda Eisen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
