Kato Bakutai (1861-1943)
Bakutai, whose true given name was Yutaro, was a master potter active between the Meiji period and the prewar Showa period. He was a disciple of Kato Shuntai, who is said to be responsible for the resurgence of the Seto pottery style. He is also said to have influenced the potter Kato Tokuro.
