『Kurakake-gama』
I make teapot in a wood-fire kiln.
Since baking in a wood-fire kiln is very difficult, generating a lot of failures, many craftsman use kilns operated by electricity and gas.

I built a new Anagama (hole type kiln) at the foot of Mt. Hakodate in 2013.
My family and friends all helped me and we finally complete it.
Kuragake-gama is its name.Mt. Hakodate is made up of different smaller mountains and I took its name from one of them.
From the site, we can enjoy the night view of Hakodate and the sunrise.

Teapots which traveled to oversea
Swiss, Frace, Italy, Polynesia, Reunion, Belgium…
I am very happy to be able to introduce the tea culture of Japan to people in faraway countries through my teapots.
