Shigaraki-yaki – Warm Rustic Japanese Stoneware

Handmade in Shigaraki, Shiga Prefecture. Earthy clay, natural kiln marks and a calm wabi-sabi presence for everyday living.

How to Choose & Use Shigaraki-yaki

For daily table use, look for pieces with visible stone-grain texture and warm reddish tones — these reveal the clay’s character. For display or interior use, tall vases or large bowls with ash-glaze drips showcase the kiln’s power and beauty. Although rustic, Shigaraki items are very durable and suited for everyday meals, making them both practical and aesthetic.
