Description
    The motif of the “1000 Cranes” derives from the painting of the Song period (960–1279) and is still popular in East and Southeast Asia as a goodluck motif. The homeland of the far-flying crane is supposed to be on the Island of Immortality; as a messenger of the gods it is always associated with the Eight Immortals in China, respectively the Lucky Gods in Japan. Hence it symbolizes the wish for a long life; the number 1000 underlines this—it stands for infinity. Although Seto has an age-old tradition of ceramic production, porcelain was not produced here until the 19th century. A style typical of Seto has never developed, even though under-glaze blue dominates in the decoration. (Wieninger, Johannes)
