Inoue Tea Udei Rock Brown Mino-yaki Yunomi - Japanese Teacup

Minoware, known as Mino-yaki (美濃焼), is a remarkable type of Japanese pottery originating from the Mino Province, which includes the towns of Tajimi, Toki, Mizunami, and Kawagoei in Gifu Prefecture. This unique pottery utilizes the distinct soil found in Gifu, making it one of the oldest forms of pottery in Japan, with roots tracing back to the 7th century.

In the context of Japan's celebrated tea ceremony culture, there is a profound appreciation for the natural beauty of materials. As a result, teacups and ceramics are often crafted from natural, coarse clay, reflecting a harmonious blend of ancient craftsmanship and modern design. Minoware pottery artfully showcases the ongoing evolution and rich traditions of these revered kilns.
