The esteemed merchant Nunami Rouzan initiated this art form, famously marking his creations with the inscription bankofueki, which translates to "eternity, constancy." Known for its unique ability to withstand heat and its visually striking, almost primitive aesthetic, Banko-yaki holds a special place in the world of tea.
