What is Mino ware (美濃焼)?
Mino ware (美濃焼), or Mino-yaki, is a richly varied tradition of Japanese pottery originating from the Tono region in Gifu Prefecture. With a history spanning more than 1,300 years, it encompasses over 15 distinct ceramic styles, each with its own personality and charm. Renowned for its adaptability, Mino ware beautifully merges time-honored techniques with contemporary approaches, making it a dynamic and enduring presence in Japanese ceramics.
