Kato Sekishun (Hoyuken Sekishun 1870-1943)
Born 1870. A favorite of Itagaki Taisuke (famous as a leader of Movement for Liberty and People's Rights), he was given the title of Hoyuken. After opening a kiln for Nagono-yaki ware in 1914, he constructed the Kasumori Kiln, producing raku ware with a distinctive glaze known as "Tatsuta-nishiki". He died in 1943.
