Oribe is a distinctive style of Japanese ceramics that emerged in the early 17th century within the Mino tradition. Named after the tea master Furuta Oribe, it is known for its free-spirited shapes and expressive surface patterns that convey movement and individuality. Artisans often shape the clay by hand, subtly adjusting the rim or contour to embody this aesthetic before firing. Asymmetry, bold lines, and a deep copper-green glaze reveal rhythm within its organic silhouette.
