Awata ware (粟田焼 Awata-yaki) is a type of Japanese pottery that is a form of Kyō ware from Kyoto.[1]
It is related to other Kyō wares such as Mizoro ware and Kiyomizu ware, but denotes the kiln it originates from.[2]
The origin lies in the Awataguchi area of Kyoto.[3]
Awata kilns also produced Satsuma ware at one point.[4]
