What people are saying:
This beautifully designed museum showcases the very best in Japanese and Asian ceramic art. The collection includes Japanese, Korean and Chinese works. The outstanding feature of this place is the way the vessels are displayed. Each is lit with natural light, and some pieces are on turntables that slowly rotate a piece, so you can really appreciate it from all angles. If you've ever taken a ceramics class or just enjoy the nuances of hand glazed art, you'll adore this place. Note: they'll be closed for renovation for a few months in the beginning of 2012.

This museum is perfect for anyone who loves art or is looking to learn more about ceramics. They have a great collection of ceramics from throughout Japan's history, and more than any other art museum in Japan. This museum in particular is great because its collection also showcases ceramics from other countries including China and Korean making it very large and extensive.
The art gallery mainly exhibits some ceramic artworks from China and North Korea, and all displayed are selected from a large collection. Special exhibitions are more expensive than online ones, and there are no amazing exhibits in the museum.
The Oriental Ceramic Art Museum in Osaka, Japan is still an artistic upgrade by Japanese locals. It means to deepen the place you have created and improve your level. It is still worth a visit. Haha.
The Museum of Oriental Ceramics in Osaka has permanent exhibitions of ceramics from China, Japan, and Korea, together with occasional works by Western potters. The main thing here is to see the Youdi Tianmu tea bowl, which is currently called Jianzhan in China. This type of craftsmanship is in the Southern Song Dynasty. There are not many extant pieces. The other is a celadon vase with a peanut pattern. If you are interested, you must visit it. Look.
