Hirado Kohsyo Danemon Kiln 1.67

While maintaining the four-hundred-year-old traditions of Mikawachi　ware, we strive constantly to keep our craftsmanship new and fresh. To us, this means expressing our own individuality through porcelain items modelled on traditional forms and patterns. Finding ample scope for self-expression in traditional tooled-chrysanthemum appliqu? work (kikka-kazari zaiku) and other ornamental ware, as in our everyday tableware and all our other products, we pour our creativity into our work.

Through our dedication to the creative craftsmanship known in Japanese as monozukuri, we hope to be worthy of the continuing support of our customers, and to approach, in some small way, the great achievements of our kiln's pioneering artisans.
