Slightly grayish, thick, glass-like vitreous paste, with a well-bonded, nearly transparent feldspathic glaze. Paste is somewhat more granular than Chinese porcelain.

Plates and other flat pieces often have marks on their bases from firing stilts used in the kilns

Decorations include underglaze blue painting, overglaze polychrome enamels and combinations of these techniques.

Underglaze blues tend to be more grayish in tint, and slightly more granular-appearing than the blues found on Chinese pieces. Motifs are inspired by Ming porcelains, but with more attention to realism.

Overglaze enamel colors include iron-red, green and gilt enameling over underglaze blue (Imari wares), as well as simpler designs in red, pink and blue.
