Mino-yaki Earthenware and Its Iconic Oribe Style 

Mino-yaki earthenware is specialty pottery produced in the Mino Region (around current Toki City) of Gifu prefecture which began in the 7th century. Mino-yaki continues to adapt to modern lifestyles while preserving its history and tradition. One of the signature characteristics of Mino-yaki earthenware is its diversity. Mino-yaki does not adhere to a single form, as it has over 15 registered types of traditional handicraft in Japan. The best-known form is Oribe Ware, which was created by Oribe Furuta, a disciple of the influential tea ceremony master, Sen no Rikyu, at the beginning of the Edo Period in the 17th century.  

 Hai-Yu Nagomi Donburi Bowl

This stunning bowl features the rich terra-cotta tones of the natural clay. The beige and green glaze is allowed to drip down the exterior of the bowl creating a unique design on each dish. The same glaze coats the interior and at the base gathers to form a starburst. In the right lighting the kan-nyu (thin crevices in the glaze) can be seen encircling this unique feature. This donburi bowl can be used as an individual bowl for serving rice dishes, noodle dishes, or as a serving bowl for salad, stew, etc., to share.
