Echizen-Yaki is one of the “Six Old kilns” , with a history dating back many centuries. The feature is its simple shapes and natural texture of the clay by firing unglazed in general. However, we can enjoy various ware fired with many variety of glazes these days.
On the end of May, “Echizen Togei Matsuri (ceramics Festival)” is held in the Echizen Ceramics Village, situated in a center of the Echizen-Yaki producing areas. Potters more than 60 display and sell their boastful products there. It is fun to meet and chat with potters who were got acquainted with before.
