These works allow you to enjoy the unique character that only handcrafted pieces can offer.

The history of Hagi ware
While 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, Korean potters Ri Shakko and his younger brother Ri Kei established an official kiln, which is considered the beginning of Hagi-yaki.
Characteristics of Hagi ware
Hagi pottery is characterized by its soft texture that takes advantage of the natural clay. Also, 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 pleasures of this pottery is enjoying the gradual change as the crazing develops color through use.
Caring for Hagi ware
Hagi pottery readily absorbs moisture. Before using each piece, immerse it in water and allow it to fully absorb the water, which will help prevent it from absorbing liquids from food. After use, ensure the piece is completely dry before storing it.
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 nanabake" (seven transformations of Hagi) and are part of the charm of Hagi-yaki pottery.
