Rizaemon Kiln

Tracing its roots to the mid-Edo period, Rizaemon Kiln has carried on a pottery tradition in Hasami, Nagasaki Prefecture for thirteen generations. While most makers in Hasami focus on porcelain, Rizaemon creates earthenware entirely in-house, from clay preparation to firing. Blending inherited skills with a modern sense of warmth and form, the kiln crafts tableware that deepens in character through everyday use.

Hasami ware

Hasami ware, a traditional porcelain from Nagasaki Prefecture, has been crafted for over 400 years in the town of Hasami\just about 10 kilometers from Arita, the birthplace of Japanfs porcelain. While Arita ware flourished as an art form known for its elaborate decorations and luxury appeal, Hasami developed as a center for everyday tableware, valued for its practicality and refined simplicity. During the Edo period, Hasami became one of Japanfs main producers of daily-use porcelain, supplying durable and beautifully made pieces to households across the country. That spirit continues today, as Hasami artisans blend traditional craftsmanship with modern design, creating timeless and often playfully charming tableware that fits perfectly into contemporary life.
