About Shigaraki Ware:

- Shigaraki Ware is one of the Six Ancient Kilns (the oldest pottery production areas in Japan) with a history of over 750 years.

- It is located in an area with high-quality clay produced from the volume of soil from Lake Biwa, the largest lake in Japan, which was formed approximately 400,000 years ago. These geological features make it an ideal place for pottery production.
