Why Choose a Coffee Mug from Kyoto?
Kiyomizu-yaki (清水焼) and Kyo-yaki (京焼) ceramics have enjoyed over four centuries of history. The names refer to pottery produced around Higashiyama in Kyoto, or within the wider city area. Kyoto ware is today a highly valued and government-designated traditional Japanese craft. Since Kyoto was long the seat of Japan’s Imperial Court, Kyoto ware is renowned for its stately elegance and ornate decoration.
Kyoto ware is mostly handmade in small quantities. It is especially prized for its exquisite hand-painted ceramics. These intricately drawn designs often depict the graceful scenery of Kyoto’s four seasons as well as reproducing other masterpieces in pottery form. These are highly decorative works of art that showcase classic luxury that are rarely found anywhere else in Japan.
Kitaya Yamamoto is an accomplished pottery artist known for his exceptional works at the Kitaya Kiln. He was born in Kyoto in 1978 and trained under Belgian-born ceramic artist Luc de Book for three years before establishing his own kiln in 2000. Yamamoto's pieces are revered for their refined elegance, delicacy, and unique appearance. Collectors and art enthusiasts appreciate his sophisticated aesthetic and attention to detail.
