Mino ware began during the Momoyama period alongside the rise of chanoyu (the Japanese tea ceremony) and is primarily produced in the Toki city area of Gifu Prefecture. It has been particularly cherished by the tea masters of the Momoyama period, when Japan’s wabi-sabi culture first blossomed. The representative colors of Mino ware include the refined pale yellow "Kizeto," the glossy jet black "Setoguro," the soft, milky white "Shino ware" reminiscent of smooth skin, and the distinctive green patterns of "Oribe ware." Today, Mino ware accounts for over half of Japan’s domestic production of porcelain tableware.
