Inoue Tea Kohiki Shiro Gray Mino-yaki Yunomi - Japanese Teacup

Minoware, known as Mino-yaki, is a remarkable style of Japanese pottery that originated in the Mino Province, particularly in the towns of Tajimi, Toki, Mizunami, and Kawagoei within Gifu Prefecture. This exquisite pottery is made from the fertile soil of Gifu and holds the distinction of being the oldest type of pottery in Japan, with its roots reaching back to the 7th century.

In the realm of Japan's tea ceremony culture, the pursuit of natural beauty is paramount. Many teacups and ceramics are crafted from natural, coarse clay, which beautifully represents a harmonious blend of ancient craftsmanship and contemporary techniques. These pieces not only honor the rich heritage of the historic kilns but also enhance the overall tea experience.
