Origin
Hasami ware is a traditional Japanese ceramic produced in Hasami Town, the “Town of Pottery," located in Kyushu's Nagasaki Prefecture. It has been loved as durable daily tableware for for over 400 years.
Hasami ware is characterized by vibrantly colored painting on beautiful pure white porcelain, a typical Japanese porcelain style. Although the traditional patterns are inherited, new designs are being created every day that pair well with modern lifestyles.
