Hagi ware, also known as Hagi-yaki (萩焼), is a type of Japanese pottery that originates from the town of Hagi in Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan. It has a long history dating back to the beginning of the Edo period (17th century).
Hagi ware is characterized by its simple, rustic, and earthy appearance. The pottery is usually unglazed or features a thin glaze that develops a soft, warm patina with use over time. This type of pottery often embodies the aesthetic principle of "wabi-sabi," appreciating the beauty in imperfection, simplicity, and natural textures.
Hagi ware is primarily used for teaware, such as teacups and teapots, but it's also utilized for various other ceramic items. Its subdued and elegant appearance has earned it recognition not only in Japan but also internationally among pottery enthusiasts and tea practitioners.
