Context
Mino potteries are ceramics and porcelains produced in the Tono region in Japan. During the Azuchi Momoyama (1573-1600) era, the apogee of ceramics, the production of Mino potteries of high artistic quality is developing, reflecting the rise of the tea ceremony in Japan. During the Showa period (1926-1988), this type of potteries became the largest production of Japan, in terms of prestige and volume.
Those high quality teapots are produced according to a process of clay kneading, followed by casting, drying, a bisque firing, a procedure of dip-glazing and a final firing. This glazing is a unique blending exclusively produced in this factory. It gives a finish touch similar to stoneware for a porcelain teapot that stays light and easy to use.
