Mino Ware
Have you ever turned over a tea bowl or a plate and found the words 'Mino Ware' written on it? That is how much this pottery is a part of everyday life. Mino ware is a general term for ceramics that have a history of over 1,300 years in the Tono region of Gifu Prefecture. During the Azuchi-Momoyama period, under the influence of tea ceremony culture, famous styles such as Shino, Oribe, Setoguro, and Kizeto were created one after another. In 1978, it was designated as a Traditional Craft. The production areas, including Tajimi City, now account for more than 60% of the national production of Japanese tableware. Its charm lies in its diverse range of styles, so much so that it cannot be defined by a single characteristic. These are vessels that allow you to feel a long history and the skill of artisans every time you hold them in your hands.
