Made in Japan Kiyomizu-yaki Introduction "Kyo-yaki" is a type of pottery that originated in the tea ceremony and spread primarily in the foothills of Higashiyama during the early Edo period. "Kiyomizu-yaki," on the other hand, refers to pottery made at Gojo-zaka, the entrance to Kiyomizu-dera Temple. Currently, all pottery made in Kyoto is called "Kyo-yaki/Kiyomizu-yaki." This type of glaze, known as crystalline glaze, is characterized by crystal precipitation during melting and cooling, resulting in beautiful flower-shaped crystalline vessels that appear as if flowers have bloomed on their surface. Most importantly, the crystals enlarge and take on various shapes. Moreover, no two designs can be made the same; each piece is a unique work of art.
