A professional pottery that creates the shape and base of Kutani ware. Miyayoshi Ceramics is one of the largest in this Kutani ware production region, creating a wide variety of shapes, from small chopstick rests to large items such as urns and plates over 50 cm in diameter. That's no wonder; the Miyayoshi Ceramics factory boasts one of the best types of molding in the region, and is able to create shapes for pottery using a variety of tools, machines, and people's hands. In this program, you will be able to see the world of Kutani ware forms that are lined up at Miyayoshi Seito, which is said to make everything except ornaments. You can also purchase original Miyayoshi Pottery products at the gallery attached to the factory. Please feel free to pick up and experience the evolving techniques of potteries that have been passed down in order to preserve tradition in the face of changing times.
When it comes to creating the shape of a plate, there are many ways to shape Kutani ware. At the Miyayoshi Ceramics factory, you can see various molding methods in addition to the potter's wheel, which is often seen in the pottery scene. This is how you can make pottery...! It was truly an eye-opener. Please enjoy a tour of the factory of Miyayoshi Ceramics, which boasts one of the best types of molding in the region.
At Rokuro Kobo, Kutani ware on a white background, which is baked daily at Miyayoshi Ceramics, is on display. Kutani ware has a strong image of painting, but there are not many opportunities to see Kutani ware before it is painted side by side. If you dare to look at it innocently, you will notice the difference in shape and the texture of the base material. Please take a look at the valuable exhibition.
Tour participants who follow us on Instagram will receive a limited edition gift from Miyayoshi Seito, which has been supplying fabrics to artists and craftsmen, from among their own brand ``tocowa'' pottery. ! Why not try out some of the original products that are only available when you're here?
