Introduction of participating potters/

"Workshop Kaze" continues to make pottery in an Kominka house that is more than 130 years old surrounded by nature. Authentic pottery making activities began in 2006 (Heisei 18).

In this interview, Mr. Hayashida, the owner of the Workshop, showed us one of the techniques called "string making" that does not use a potter's wheel. "String-making" is a method of stacking clay in the form of strings and shaping them. Mr. Hayashida skillfully strings the "black mud soil" and piles it up in a relaxed manner. The scene is as if time is streaming peacefully, and just looking at it soothes my heart.

When firing vessels by carbonization firing, in order to take advantage of the Nature shades created by the way the flame hits, no glaze is applied to the outside to bring out the original Texture/character of the soil. The inside is covered with a "transparent glaze" to achieve ease of use that is close to daily life. It has a rustic and unpretentious appearance.

During the period, in addition to dragonfly bamboo crafts and woodwork, handmade sweets, bread and jam will be sold.
