"Ko-Iga" is the highest peak of pottery in history, known as "exceptional beauty" in the world of tea ceremony, mainly during the Sengoku period, when Sen no Rikyu, Oda Nobunaga, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi were active, and the Azuchi-Momoyama period. Experience Awaji Iga making, a reproduction of the Ko-Iga making used in tea ceremony at that time, with one-on-one guidance from a craftsman who hand-made the largest six-tiered climbing kiln in Japan. Ko-Iga is fired at the world's highest firing temperature of 1400℃ for several days, which is unparalleled in the world, so the shape is distorted and sometimes it breaks when firewood is repeatedly hit against it, but the absolute presence and scenery that surpasses this are known as exceptional beauty. (*250℃-450℃ in a bonfire, 1500℃ in a blast furnace) Awaji Iga aims to revive Ko-Iga and values the invisible process and value, so it does not use modern tools such as burners and thermometers, or glazes that glassify the surface. During the Sengoku period, wars were taking place all over Japan, but no one really wanted war, and tea ceremonies served as a place for secret talks to avoid war. It is said that Ko-Iga was used as a special tool to hold a special tea ceremony, which could avoid war if successful, or lead to war if unsuccessful. At Tsurugi Kiln, you can experience the revival of Ko-Iga, which was used in tea ceremonies that determined history and people's lives and deaths, and the making of Awaji Iga pottery. *The actual experience is limited to the forming process. During the four days and nights of the kiln firing in February, you can visit the impressive site at any time.
