There is disclosed a piezoelectric device which has a remarkably high piezoelectric characteristic and which is superior in a vibration transmitting property between a substrate and a piezoelectric portion and in which linearity of a flexural displacement with respect to a voltage is high up to a high voltage region and which exhibits a high durability even in a case where the device is used with a large flexural displacement for a long period. The piezoelectric device is provided with: a substrate 2 made of a ceramic; a piezoelectric portion 1 constituted of a piezoelectric porcelain composition containing as a major component a Pb(Mg, Ni)<SUB>1/3</SUB>Nb<SUB>2/3</SUB>O<SUB>3</SUB>-PbZrO<SUB>3</SUB>-PbTiO<SUB>3 </SUB>ternary solid solution system composition represented by a predetermined formula; and an electrode 3 electrically connected to the piezoelectric portion 1, and the piezoelectric portion 1 is solidly attached onto the substrate 2 directly or via the electrode 3. |
