His father was Kato Kobei the 5th, who presided over the Maruko Pottery Company. Purchased by the government for the Nitten Special Prize.

After nearly 20 years of trial and error, he succeeded in reproducing the luster glaze process, which had been a mystery for many years.
Luster glaze is a type of 9th-14th century Islamic pottery in which patterns are painted with copper, silver, or other oxides over a white tin lead glaze fired in a low-fire reduction firing process to produce a subdued luster similar to that of gold.
Awarded a Living National Treasure in 1995.
His son, Kato Yasuhide, is the 7th Kato Kobei. The 6th Kato Kobei is absent.
