 Shigaraki town, where our tea fields are located, is also very famous for "Shigaraki ware".

The kiln is one of 6 ancient kilns in Japan and it has over 1200 years of history.

These wares are made of the sand clay from Lake Biwa, the biffest lake in Japan. They are warm orangish brown colored and more durable.
