BIZEN WARE

About 1,000 years ago / 1100s / Heian–Kamakura Period

Bizen ware developed around Imbe in Okayama from the late Heian into the Kamakura period and is one of Japan’s Six Ancient Kilns. Iron-rich clay is fired for long periods at high temperature without applied glaze, producing durable jars and mortars and later highly valued tea ceramics.

In Japan, Bizen is the classic example of yakishime pottery in which clay and fire create the decoration. Sake vessels, flowerware and tableware are appreciated for one-of-a-kind firing effects such as goma ash marks, hidasuki red lines and sangiri.

Hidasuki began as an accident. Straw was originally placed between pieces to stop them sticking together in the kiln; chemical reactions between the straw and iron in the clay left dramatic red lines. A practical firing aid eventually became one of the most deliberately sought-after beauties in Japanese ceramics.

Individual Differences

As each piece is individually handcrafted, slight variations in color, pattern, shape, and texture may occur. These subtle differences are a natural characteristic of handcrafted works, making each piece truly unique. We hope you will enjoy these individual variations as part of the beauty and character of Japanese craftsmanship.

Production Time

If an item is not currently in stock, it may be made to order by the artisan. As each piece is carefully handcrafted, production may take several months depending on the item and the artisan's schedule. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
