Its origins are said to date back to the late Heian period through the early Kamakura period. Until the Momoyama period, anagama (single-chambered tunnel kilns) were used, but around 1611 (Keichō 16), the semi-underground Korean-style noborigama (climbing kiln) was introduced. At the same time, the keri-rokuro (a kick wheel that rotates counterclockwise, uniquely preserved in Tachikui) was also adopted, and these traditional techniques continue to be handed down to this day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003eIn its early stages, the main products were jars, pots, and mortars. However, under the guidance of tea masters such as Kobori Enshū in the early Edo period, many outstanding tea utensils—including tea caddies, fresh-water jars, and tea bowls—were produced. Later, under the protection and encouragement of the Sasayama Domain in the mid-to-late Edo period, renowned artisans such as Naosaku, Ichifusa, Kayū, and Ichikono competed in skill, further elevating the reputation of Tanba Ware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003eHanded down through the Meiji, Taishō, and Shōwa eras, Tanba Ware overcame hardships following World War II and has since been devoted to the production of folk craft items, particularly tableware and flower vases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003eAs for its name, during the anagama period it was known as “Onogahara Ware.” With the introduction of the noborigama, it came to be called “Tanba Ware” or “Tachikui Ware.” In 1978 (Shōwa 53), it was officially designated a National Traditional Craft under the name “Tanba Tachikui Ware.” Today, however, the cooperative association has unified its name as simply “Tanba Ware.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCraftsman Story\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCraftsman Profile\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003eTanbungama\u003cbr\u003eTanbungama is a kiln that has been passed down through generations. Today, there are more than 60 Tamba ware kilns, but when the first generation began, there were only about 20 to 30, making Tanbungama one of the historic kilns in the Tachikui area. In its early days, the kiln mainly produced sake barrels, which were supplied to breweries in Nada.

Its origins are said to date back to the late Heian period through the early Kamakura period. Until the Momoyama period, anagama (single-chambered tunnel kilns) were used, but around 1611 (Keichō 16), the semi-underground Korean-style noborigama (climbing kiln) was introduced. At the same time, the keri-rokuro (a kick wheel that rotates counterclockwise, uniquely preserved in Tachikui) was also adopted, and these traditional techniques continue to be handed down to this day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" bis_size='{\"x\":12,\"y\":610,\"w\":575,\"h\":137,\"abs_x\":626,\"abs_y\":646}'\u003eIn its early stages, the main products were jars, pots, and mortars. However, under the guidance of tea masters such as Kobori Enshū in the early Edo period, many outstanding tea utensils—including tea caddies, fresh-water jars, and tea bowls—were produced. Later, under the protection and encouragement of the Sasayama Domain in the mid-to-late Edo period, renowned artisans such as Naosaku, Ichifusa, Kayū, and Ichikono competed in skill, further elevating the reputation of Tanba Ware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" bis_size='{\"x\":12,\"y\":763,\"w\":575,\"h\":58,\"abs_x\":626,\"abs_y\":799}'\u003eHanded down through the Meiji, Taishō, and Shōwa eras, Tanba Ware overcame hardships following World War II and has since been devoted to the production of folk craft items, particularly tableware and flower vases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" bis_size='{\"x\":12,\"y\":838,\"w\":575,\"h\":97,\"abs_x\":626,\"abs_y\":874}'\u003eAs for its name, during the anagama period it was known as “Onogahara Ware.” With the introduction of the noborigama, it came to be called “Tanba Ware” or “Tachikui Ware.” In 1978 (Shōwa 53), it was officially designated a National Traditional Craft under the name “Tanba Tachikui Ware.” Today, however, the cooperative association has unified its name as simply “Tanba Ware.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\" bis_size='{\"x\":12,\"y\":951,\"w\":575,\"h\":19,\"abs_x\":626,\"abs_y\":987}'\u003e\u003cbr bis_size='{\"x\":42,\"y\":952,\"w\":0,\"h\":17,\"abs_x\":656,\"abs_y\":988}'\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 bis_size='{\"x\":12,\"y\":987,\"w\":575,\"h\":22,\"abs_x\":626,\"abs_y\":1023}'\u003eCraftsman Story\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp bis_size='{\"x\":12,\"y\":1021,\"w\":575,\"h\":19,\"abs_x\":626,\"abs_y\":1057}'\u003eCraftsman Profile\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\" bis_size='{\"x\":12,\"y\":1056,\"w\":575,\"h\":156,\"abs_x\":626,\"abs_y\":1092}'\u003eTanbungama\u003cbr bis_size='{\"x\":124,\"y\":1057,\"w\":0,\"h\":17,\"abs_x\":738,\"abs_y\":1093}'\u003eTanbungama is a kiln that has been passed down through generations.
