Underglaze is a method of decorating pottery in which painted decoration is applied to the surface before it is covered with a transparent ceramic glaze and fired in a kiln. Because the glaze subsequently covers it, such decoration is completely durable, and it also allows the production of pottery with a surface that has a uniform sheen.
The 9th Imaizumi Imaemon died in 1873, two years after the abolition of the kiln, and the 10th Imaemon (1847-1927) took over as head of the family at the age of 26. In traditional Nabeshima ware, the underglaze and final firing processes were carried out in Ōkawachi, while the overglaze process was carried out in Akaemachi.

[15] Underglaze painting requires considerably more skill than overglaze, since defects in the painting will often become visible only after the firing. [14] During firing even refractory paints change color in the great heat. A light violet may turn into a dark blue, and a pale pink ...
