In the real world

E-Karatsu is painted on the body with an iron-bearing pigment, then covered with a feldspar glaze containing wood ash and fired. The iron drawing emerges brown beneath the pale glaze.

Differences in game

Satoyama offers neither a brush pattern nor regional clay and glaze recipes; adding the iron pigment and ash glaze always gives one branch.
