Inoue Tea Unofu Sendan Gray Mino-yaki Yunomi - Japanese Teacup

Minoware, also known as Mino-yaki 美濃焼, embodies a prestigious tradition of Japanese pottery that hails from Mino Province, which includes the towns of Tajimi, Toki, Mizunami, and Kawagoei in Gifu Prefecture. This exquisite pottery, made from the fertile soil of Gifu, is celebrated as Japan's oldest form of ceramic art, with origins tracing back to the 7th century.

In the context of Japan's tea ceremony culture, there is a deep appreciation for the unadorned beauty of natural materials. This philosophy is beautifully reflected in the design of teacups and ceramics, often molded from natural, textured clay. The harmonious blend of ancient techniques and modern aesthetics highlights the remarkable evolution and enduring legacies of these esteemed kilns.
