The history of Hagi ware
Although it is said that the pottery came to be commonly called Hagi-yaki from the Meiji period onward, the history of Hagi-yaki dates back to the early Edo period. In Keicho 9 (1604), by the command of Mori Terumoto, the founder of the Hagi domain, the official kiln established by Korean potters Yi Shakko and his younger brother Yi Kei is considered the beginning of Hagi-yaki.
Characteristics of Hagi ware
Hagi pottery is characterized by its soft texture that makes the most of the natural clay. Additionally, as the temperature drops after firing, cracks called "crazing" appear on the surface due to the difference in shrinkage rates between the clay and glaze. One of the joys of using these pieces is watching the gradual color changes that develop in the crazing over time.
Caring for Hagi ware
Hagi pottery easily absorbs moisture. Before using the vessel, soak it in water each time and allow it to absorb water thoroughly, which will prevent it from absorbing juices from food. After use, please ensure it is completely dry before storing.
Hagi ware
Hagi-yaki pottery is produced in Hagi City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. This is the castle town of the Mori family of the Choshu Domain, which gave birth to notable figures such as Yoshida Shoin and Takasugi Shinsaku.
The "crazing" that appears on the surface of Hagi-yaki causes the character to change the more it is used. These ever-changing expressions are called "Hagi no nana-bake" (the seven transformations of Hagi), which is part of the charm of Hagi-yaki pottery.
