Meet the Artisans: Marumitsu Poterie
Since 1950, the artisans of Marumitsu have been creating heirloom-worthy ceramics in Seto, Aichi, Japan's pottery capital.
Here, the oldest kilns in the country continue to burn, keeping alive ancient traditions & sharing the wonders of Japanese ceramics with a new generation of collectors.
Marumitsu's breathtaking creations are known for their nature-inspired silhouettes and nuanced French style.
The thoughtful approach of Marumitsu is made evident in their belief that "meals are delightful." Each piece is created with a deeply intentional perspective to be both aesthetically beautiful and exceptionally functional for daily use.
Incorporating the best of time-honored and modern techniques, master artisans skillfully form Marumitu Poterie's signature pieces from natural clays harvested throughout the surrounding hillsides of Seto.
Marumitsu's connection to the people and natural resources that create every piece can be felt and seen in each carefully crafted, subtlely unique work of art.
