Today, Mino Yaki accounts for approximately 60% of all tableware produced in Japan, making it a cornerstone of Japanese dining culture. From its early roots in Sue ware techniques introduced from the Korean Peninsula, through the refined ash-glazed white porcelain of the Heian period, to the tea ceremony–inspired masterpieces of the Azuchi-Momoyama era, Mino Yaki has continually evolved while honouring its rich heritage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e────────────────────\u003cbr\u003e✦ IMPORTANT NOTES\u003cbr\u003e────────────────────\u003cbr\u003e• This is a handcrafted ceramic item. Slight variations in colour, glaze, and shape are natural characteristics of authentic pottery and add to its unique charm.\u003cbr\u003e• Handle with care. Avoid sudden temperature changes (e.g., pouring boiling water into a very cold pitcher) to prevent cracking.\u003cbr\u003e• Hand washing is recommended to preserve the beauty of the glaze.\u003cbr\u003e• Please avoid using in microwaves or dishwashers unless confirmed safe for ceramic ware.\u003cbr\u003e• Store in a dry place when not in use.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThank you for choosing our authentic Japanese Mino Yaki Yuzamashi.
