<p>[QUOTE="dgbjwc, post: 216312, member: 308"]I'm more familiar with Tokanabe as I've some experience with Tokanabe wall pockets. It basically means that the pottery is decorated in some way but left unglazed. It has a rough finish as opposed to the silky smooth finish of most Japanese wall pockets. It's my understanding that not glazing the decoration saved money. Since the decoration is not glazed it comes off fairly easily and many Tokanabe wall pockets have lost some, most, or all of their decoration. Tokanabe wall pockets don't tend to sell too well.</p><p>Don[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
