" Tanba-yaki" pottery originated approximately 800 years ago
and has played an essential role in people's daily lives, as well as becoming
sought after as artwork in recent years. Its distinguishing feature is its
simplicity and absence of decorative flourishes. It consists mainly of tableware
made for daily use, made with a view to being a part of daily life.
Practical knowledge about daily life was drawn on in making Tanba-yaki pottery,
so that the finished product is easy to use, and to the touch imparts a sense
of the warmth of the earth and of the people.
