    The difference between Satsuma and moriage is that the former is a type of pottery, and the latter is a technique for decorating pottery. Satsuma pottery is the term for earthenware pottery from Japan's Satsuma region. Although there are different styles, the most common element of Satsuma pottery is a heavy, dark glaze. Moriage is the term for when potters add raised slip decorations to pottery, creating a three-dimensional effect. Some Satsuma pieces show off moriage details, while others do not.

Satsuma is a region in Japan known for its pottery, and many factories and artisans have operated there, including Kinkozan, Taizan, Yasuda, Choshuzan, Fuzan, Gyozan, Koshida and Maruni Kobe. Each maker has its own marks associated with it, and these typically are in Japanese kanji characters. You can compare the characters on your piece to pictures shared online to find a match. Alternatively, a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer can help you identify your pottery markings. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of Satsuma pottery.

    One way to tell if your Satsuma vase is valuable is to look for markings on it. The oldest and typically most expensive pieces will usually have the Shimazu family crest — a circle with a cross through it — hand-painted on the bottom. If the piece is stamped with the marking or says "Made in Japan" in the Roman alphabet, it is a newer vase. Factors like the style of the vase and its condition will also impact its price. It's a good idea to have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable dealer evaluate your vase to determine its value. Find a variety of Satsuma vases on 1stDibs.
