About the style and atmosphere

Koishiwara ware is characterized by its unique geometric patterns created by traditional techniques such as ``hakeme'', ``tobiki plane'', and ``comb painting''. It was highly praised by Bernard Leach, who had a great influence on the Japanese ceramics world, calling it ``the pinnacle of practical beauty.'' Nowadays, it has become even more popular due to its traditional yet somewhat modern design. It is a vessel that naturally blends into modern life while retaining its old-fashioned, rustic charm, and is a true example of the beauty of use. ■You can also view Koishiwara ware pottery here.

Koishiwara ware

This is a historic kiln that was opened in Toho Village, Fukuoka Prefecture over 300 years ago. Its most distinctive feature is its unique geometric patterns such as ``hake-me'', ``tobi-kō'', and ``comb-drawing''. It is popular for its orderly yet simple texture that gives you the warmth of handiwork, and has become a familiar item for everyday use. With the folk art movement that began in the early 20th century, its existence was once again attracting attention, and the world-renowned British potter Bernard Leach praised it as ``the pinnacle of practical beauty.'' Onta-yaki in Hita City, Oita Prefecture, where the same technique has been passed down, is a sister kiln to Koishiwara-yaki. +‥‥‥‥+ 《Customer coordination》 〇From nonohana.saku (instagram) A glimpse of a canna pattern It adds a sense of playfulness to your dining table. +‥‥‥‥+
