Makuzu Kozan (1842-1916) was born in Makuzuhara, Kyoto (currently Higashiyama Ward) as the fourth son of the first conductor Rakuchozo (Rakuchozo / Makuzuchozo).
Kozan, who started the pottery industry following his father's footsteps, teaches Okayama's traditional craft "Mushiake ware" in the first year of the Meiji era.
After that, he moved to Yokohama, where he opened the Makuzuyo kiln and worked with his craftsmen to manufacture pottery for export. He achieved brilliant results at national and international expositions and was active as a representative potter of the Meiji era.
The "Makuzu" mark used by Chozo, the father of the first Kozan.
It is a work of the time when the first Kozan was making pottery with Mushiake in Okayama.
