Playful Colors from a Quiet Kyoto Studio
Located near Kanshuji Temple in Kyoto, Dainichi Kiln is a family-run pottery workshop.
Artist Yotaro Takemura, together with his father Shigeo, continues the tradition of Kiyomizu-yaki pottery while embracing creativity and free expression.
Each piece is carefully handmade in their peaceful mountain studio, resulting in ceramics that blend seamlessly into daily life while radiating the individuality of modern art.

Vivid, Delicate, and Playfully Artistic
The Yudeisai series features bold, vibrant glazes reminiscent of pop art and street graffiti.
Using a unique air-spray glazing technique, layers of color overlap to create intricate patterns and playful gradients. Each piece is completely one of a kind — alive with movement and joy.

Everyday Art for Your Table
More than tableware, the Yudeisai series brings rhythm and color to any meal. These handmade ceramics highlight dishes beautifully, from Japanese cuisine to Western plates, turning ordinary dining into something special.
Casual yet refined, each work carries the warmth of handmade Japanese pottery. Perfect as a thoughtful gift or for adding a touch of Kyoto craftsmanship to your own home.

竹村陽太郎さんの作品2点目です。
やはり素敵な作品です。
この度はレビューをお寄せいただき、誠にありがとうございます。
再び竹村陽太郎の作品をお選びいただき、大変嬉しく存じます。
今回のお品もご愛用いただけましたら幸いです。今後ともどうぞよろしくお願いいたします。
釉薬の重なり合うカップ底の色合いが写真と違うだろうと思っていましたが、思っている以上に美しいグラデーションを装っておりました。
カップの丸みも手に馴染むお気に入りの一品となりました。
外側は美しいと思いますが、内側の底部分の突然の変化は何をイメージしているのでしょうか?
藍、青、翠が混ざったような優しいグラデーションの取皿。ツルッとしたコーティングがされていますが、おもてはふちまわりの細かい線は触るとざらりとして陶器そのもの。うらも水滴模様をツルリですが、底から水滴まではざらりとして温かみを感じるました。市販品は全部がツルッとしていますからね。
手に取ると外側のポコっとした水滴のような模様が当たり温かみがあります。料理を食べ終えたら、中心からきらきら色のかけらの世界が現れます。陶器って素晴らしいと初めて感じました。

Owner’s Comment
This pouring vessel is like a piece of modern ceramic art, with its striking gradient colors contrasted by a glossy handle.
Durable and versatile, it can be used for serving sake — both chilled and warm — as well as herbal teas or loose-leaf infusions.
A functional yet artistic piece, handmade in Kyoto, that blends traditional pottery with contemporary expression.
