Kato Sanpei III was born the second son of Kato Sanpei II into a line of Seto-ware makers, from which he inherited his title.
Kato looked after his house from a young age after his father died an early death, and he created porcelain pieces meant for export against the backdrop of the new Meiji era.
Domestically, he presented works at a number of exhibitions, including the National Industrial Exhibition in 1878. He also worked as a potter for some time at the Hyochien workshop, and his name can now be seen among those works.
