Handmade Kyoto Pottery Glass

From a Small Kiln in Kyoto

Dainichi Kiln, located near Kansyuji Temple in Kyoto, is a family workshop where tradition and modern living meet.

Father Shigeo Takemura and his son Yotaro create pottery that carries on the legacy of Kiyomizu ware while blending seamlessly into everyday life.

Natural glazes and careful handmade techniques bring warmth and individuality to each piece, crafted one by one in their quiet mountain studio.

Kyoto Blue Glaze Ceramic

A Blue Gradient Inspired by Sky and Sea

The signature Hekiyu series evokes the beauty of sky and ocean, with a serene depth of color.

From bright turquoise to soft aqua and deep indigo, the glaze flows naturally to create a one-of-a-kind gradient.

Every handmade piece is unique—no two are ever the same. Depending on the light and angle, the ceramic surface reveals a shifting expression, a hallmark of traditional Japanese pottery.
