Kenji Matsuoka of Heian Rakudo runs his quiet pottery studio in Yamashina, Kyoto.
Born into a family of Kyo-ware and Kiyomizu-ware artisans, he naturally found his way to working with clay, crafting pottery that blends seamlessly into everyday life.

Heian Rakudo’s pottery is designed to be effortlessly integrated into daily life—simple, warm, and inviting.
Each piece carries a quiet charm, enhancing everyday moments with understated elegance.
In his peaceful studio, Matsuoka dedicates himself entirely to his craft, shaping each piece with care and intention.

Though he single-handedly creates each piece, he is supported by his wife, whose encouragement and assistance make their pottery studio a truly heartfelt endeavor.
Experience the warmth and craftsmanship of a studio run by a dedicated husband-and-wife team—each piece infused with love and artistry.
