Our goal at Ceramic Japan is to share our simple yet arresting designs, the embodiment of the creator’s feelings, with as many people as possible by leveraging the masterful skills we have cultivated throughout history. One word for ceramics in Japanese is Seto-mono, so here in Seto, a traditional area for ceramics production, we will continue to create and share our unique products with the world, that are loved across generations. The history of Ceramic Japan began in 1973 with the establishment of a company whose aim was to create advanced designs with the traditional skill available in Seto. From our very beginning, Ceramic Japan planned and developed products in collaboration with designers from a wide variety of fields, not only ceramics, achieving products which embodied a perfect fusion between design and skill.
