🌸 Takahama Ware Jufang Kiln
Located in the Takahama area of Amakusa Saikai, Takahama Ware Juyoshi Kiln boasts a long history of mining and pottery of Amakusa Porcelain stone in the middle of the Edo period. It is characterized by pure white porcelain with a sense of transparency, and a unique painting with a seaweed motif called "Mirumon". Many of you may have seen vessels with this pattern in Kumamoto Prefecture.
The Workshop just before the "Spring Kiln Tour" is busy preparing for the delivery of goods. During the period, there will be a lineup of products at great prices that can be said to be unbeatable, and you can expect to encounter bargains. The painted vessels are very humorous and cute, and it is also interesting that there are many Sake motifs this season.
Mariko Ueda, the managing director, recommends a large-capacity café au lait bowl. It is a vessel that you want to use in the morning when you want to drink a lot and when you want to eat cereal.
On the premises, there is also the residence of the Ueda family, who once served as a shoya in this area, and when you stroll through the garden, the fresh greenery of Spring will be dazzling. When I suddenly felt the gaze of something and stopped... There, a large raccoon figurine staring at us from among the Traditional Japanese straw raincoat sat in the greenery. This raccoon is looking for names. When you visit, why not become a godfather Squid?
