Hasami ware is a traditional Japanese ceramic produced in Hasami Town, often called the "Town of Pottery," located in Nagasaki Prefecture, Kyushu. For over 400 years, it has been cherished as durable and practical tableware for everyday use.
It is known for its vibrant hand-painted designs on a pure white porcelain base—an iconic feature of Japanese porcelain. While Hasami ware continues to honor traditional patterns, artisans are constantly creating new designs that suit contemporary lifestyles, blending timeless beauty with modern functionality.

Sea Bream
Sea bream (tai in Japanese) has long been a familiar and auspicious fish for Japanese people, often used on celebratory occasions due to the association with the Japanese word mede-tai, which means "to be happy" in Japanese. A sea bream reigns as the king of fish, and its beautiful appearance and light red color make it an indispensable item for celebratory occasions. It also has long been valued as a lucky charm, as seen in the iconic image held up by Ebisu, one of the Seven Gods of Good Fortune.
