We are a pottery manufacturer of Tokoname ware tea utensils. Tokoname ware is a type of pottery produced in and around Tokoname City, located in the Chita Peninsula of Aichi Prefecture, and is one of the six oldest potteries in Japan. We have been producing Tokoname ware tea sets for over 40 years, and have been focusing on tea sets of teapots and teacups. In order to produce better products, we manufactures our own teapots from the raw materials for teapots, namely mud clay. Most of our products are made by oxidizing and then reduction firing the fabric molded with red clay to blacken it (a technique used in Tokoname ware).
