From Global Knowledge Compendium of Traditional Crafts and Artisanal Techniques

By the early 18th century, the style of Imari ware began to evolve. Japanese potters developed more refined techniques, and new styles such as Nabeshima ware emerged, focusing on elegance and restraint. The term Ko-Imari is now used to specifically distinguish these early exported works from later domestic or revival pieces.
