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 Keichō 9 (1604), the official kiln established by Korean potters Ri Shakukō and his younger brother Ri Kei under the command of Mōri Terumoto, the founder of the Hagi domain, 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. After firing, as the temperature drops, the difference in shrinkage rates between the clay and glaze creates a crackle pattern called "crazing" on the surface. One of the pleasures of using Hagi pottery is watching how the crazing gradually develops color over time with use.
Caring for Hagi ware
Hagi pottery easily absorbs moisture. Before using the vessel, soak it in water each time and allow it to fully absorb water, which will help prevent it from absorbing cooking liquids. After use, allow it to dry completely before storing.
Hagi ware
Hagi pottery is produced in Hagi City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. This is the castle town of the Choshu Domain and the Mori family, which gave birth to Yoshida Shoin, Takasugi Shinsaku, and other notable figures.
The "crazing" that appears on the surface of Hagi pottery causes the character to change the more it is used. These ever-changing expressions are called "Hagi no nanabake" (the seven transformations of Hagi), which is part of the charm of Hagi pottery.
