Minoware, or Mino-yaki 美濃焼, represents a distinguished form of Japanese pottery that has its origins in Mino Province, specifically around the towns of Tajimi, Toki, Mizunami, and Kawagoei in Gifu Prefecture. Crafted from the unique soil of Gifu Prefecture, Minoyaki is recognized as the oldest pottery in Japan, dating back to the 7th century.
Within the context of Japan's rich tea ceremony culture, the pursuit of authentic beauty is a central theme. Consequently, teacups and ceramics are often initially shaped using natural and coarse clay. This blend of ancient and modern styles showcases the evolution and enduring traditions of these historic kilns.
