For over a century, the kiln has remained dedicated to the principles of simplicity and strength, continuously producing functional ware for everyday use.
Gohou Kiln’s pieces, characterized by their clean white aesthetic, honor the fundamental forms of tableware, resulting in timeless designs that never lose their appeal. Precisely because of these essential forms, great care is taken in the meticulous finishing of every detail—an aspect we invite you to appreciate.
In 2019, participation in a project at the Tajimi City Design Research Institute marked a new chapter for the kiln. This experience led to a renewed focus on finely crafted forms, fresh perspectives in design, and the introduction of colored glazes—areas previously unexplored.
Through this evolution, the piece known as “Akari Sencha” was born.
