Minoware, or Mino-yaki, is a celebrated tradition of Japanese pottery that originates from the Mino Province, including the towns of Tajimi, Toki, Mizunami, and Kawagoei in Gifu Prefecture. Known for its rich soil, Gifu Prefecture is home to some of the oldest pottery in Japan, with a history that dates back to the 7th century.
Within the context of Japan's tea ceremony culture, there is a deep appreciation for the natural essence of beauty. This philosophy is often embodied in the creation of teacups and ceramics made from natural, coarse clay. The combination of ancient techniques and contemporary designs reflects the ongoing evolution and rich heritage of these historic kilns.
