Minoware, or Mino-yaki 美濃焼, represents a distinguished tradition of Japanese pottery originating from Mino Province, encompassing the towns of Tajimi, Toki, Mizunami, and Kawagoei in Gifu Prefecture. Crafted from the rich soil of Gifu Prefecture, Mino-yaki is recognized as one of Japan's oldest pottery styles, with its roots tracing back to the 7th century.
In the context of Japan's revered tea ceremony culture, the pursuit of natural beauty is a fundamental principle. Consequently, teacups and ceramics are often initially shaped using natural, coarse clay. The fusion of ancient and contemporary styles illustrates the rich evolution and enduring tradition of these historic kilns.
