Located in the countryside of Nantan City, Kyoto, where the original landscape is preserved, Takunobu Sawada creates his pottery at his studio.
This is part of Sawada’s modern and striking "AMI" series, known for its bold designs.
Each piece is meticulously shaped by hand, with a design featuring amber and cobalt blue that forms a net-like pattern, creating a fresh and innovative look.

The glossy black contrasts beautifully with the amber and cobalt blue, creating a design that becomes even more familiar with use, exuding elegance and craftsmanship.
Coming from a family of Kyoto Kiyomizu ware potters, Sawada’s deep interest in pottery began from a young age. With over 20 years of experience, he is now considered a seasoned master.
With his youthful sensibility and masterful technique, Sawada creates truly unique pieces that reflect the essence of Kyoto pottery. Bring one of his creations to your home today.
