Agano ware is characterized by its thin and lightweight fabric, and the variety of glazes that it produces.
Morigama maintains its traditions while breathing new life into the pottery using the scraping technique with seasonal plants as motifs.
On the other hand, from the pitch-black darkness to the red of the sunrise,
The transition of nature, such as the clear indigo of the sky
I am also working on a style that engraves into the vessel.
