Mino ware 


Produced in the Toki, Tajimi, Mizunami, and Kani regions of Gifu prefecture with a 1300-year history, Mino ware accounts for over 50 percent of Japanese ceramics now. As The Way of Tea gained popularity about 400 years ago, craftsmen in Mino began producing artistic tea utensils.  Shino (white and textured), Kizeto (yellow ocher), Oribe (green pattern over light gray base) and Setoguro (black) are representative of these crafts.  Nowadays, there are many manufacturers of Mino ware, with factories producing large numbers of these fine ceramics.
