It has been selected as a Japan heritage site and is a traditional craft that has continued since the Heian period.

Echizen Town is also known as the production area of Echizen pottery, and there are documents such as the Fukui Prefectural Pottery Museum and the Echizen Ancient Kiln Museum in Echizen Pottery Village, where you can learn about Echizen pottery

I want to feel Echizen pottery even more realistically! For those who say, we recommend a direct visit to the kiln of Echizen pottery.
You can actually see the handiwork of craftsmen in front of you.

This time Workshop we would like to introduce five potters who accept Visiting the site.

・・・

●Hosaigama, Mr. Yoshida
He was born in Echizen Town (formerly Oda Town), the production area of Echizen pottery, so he went on to the path of pottery.
Focusing on Reproduction of the colors of Nature with a sense of the seasons, I am also working hard to create works for Japanese exhibitions and contemporary craft exhibitions in addition to making ceramics.
Recently, together with my son, I am working hard every day to convey the charm of Echizen pottery with two generations of parents and children.

●Toseisha Izumi
At the age of 35, he moved from Sendai, Miyagi Prefecture to Echizen Town, Fukui Prefecture.
I like the environment where I can concentrate on creating works in the idyllic Satoyama atmosphere.
Mr. Izumi is characterized by his works with a simple texture for everyday use. He is a potter who places great importance on contact with customers, such as pottery experiences on business trips.

●Furaigama / Oya
Oya was born in Osohara in his Local Echizen Town (former Miyazaki Village).
I grew up in a pottery family, where both my father and mother were potters.
He aims to create works that are fun and relaxing to use, and his cute works with animal motifs are also eye-catching.

●Hyuga Workshop, Hyuga-san
Mr. Hinata went from being a trainee of Echizen pottery to the path of Echizen pottery, and is still encouraged to train the next generation.
Echizen pottery, which tends to give a plain impression, is working on making brightly colored glazes to attract the attention of young people and urban people as much as possible.

●Seedling kiln (Mishogama), Mr. Shindo
While studying art at university, I wanted to create my own things, so I entered the world of ceramics, where I could create my favorite shapes with three-dimensional objects.
Echizen pottery is a place where I like the freedom of the artist to have his or her own style, the climate that nurtures the artist, and the atmosphere of the land.
He is characterized by his works using the powdering technique (white makeup), and continues to make everyday vessels that are rooted in the life that he wishes he had.

Stickers and magnets are also popular 💖
As I briefly introduced in Stories before, there are other tourism bureau original goods besides long sleeves and washcloths!
The first and second photos are stickers! And the third one is a magnet!
There are people who have conquered all types, those who have arranged each theme, and those who are chosen by their favorite colors and patterns, and it is fun to choose from several types. 🐒🍎♨️⛷
Perfect not only for yourself but also for small Souvenirs! ！
