Meiji Imari is a type of Arita ware produced during the Meiji period, and is particularly valued as a work exported in conjunction with the promotion of industrial development. The Meiji government sought to improve the quality of Japan's traditional crafts by exhibiting it at the World Exposition, and Meiji Imari became a symbol of this.
