Minoware, or Mino-yaki 美濃焼, represents a distinguished style of Japanese pottery that originated in 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 the oldest type of pottery in Japan, with its roots tracing back to the 7th century.

Within Japan's revered tea ceremony culture, the pursuit of natural beauty is a fundamental principle. As a result, teacups and ceramics are often shaped from natural and coarse clay. This method reflects a blend of various ancient and modern styles, illustrating the evolution and enduring tradition of these historic kilns.
