Best Raku Ware Exhibition 2022

In the Momoyama period (the 16th century), the first Raku ware was made by Chojiro, the founder of Raku ware, after receiving orders from Sen no Rikyu, Japan's most famous Tea Ceremony artist. Chojiro's unique skill of hand forming has been passed on for over 400 years--16 generations, while individual successors making efforts to establish their own identity in shape, color, glaze and so on, that have been fascinating us. We have a great collections of black and red tea bowls, tea ceremony equipments of the Raku family from Chojiro the 1st, Joukei, Nonkau to the successive potter.
