Ikkyu Tea

Takatori-Yaki is famous for the use of seven different kinds of color glazes. Moreover, it produces a high note as if it was porcelain when flicking one’s fingers at it. This is because Takatori-Yaki is made very thin although it has layers of glazes.

Karatsu Yaki is considered one of the top ceramic producers within the Japanese world of pottery with techniques including a Kick wheel, Climbing kiln, Wooden ash glaze (a glaze technique from Korea mainly made from charcoal) and its bright colors and simplicity.

Arita-yaki porcelain follows a special technique coming from 400 years of history. The first porcelain made in Japan followed the discovery of porcelain clay near Arita near the end of the 16th century.
