A Traditional Japanese Ceramic Craft Passed Down Through Generations in the Tono Region of Gifu Prefecture.

Mino ware is one of Japan's most celebrated ceramic traditions, with a history believed to date back approximately 1,400 years.

Over the centuries, it has given rise to a wide variety of styles, including Shino, Oribe, Ki-Seto, and Seto-Guro. Today, Mino ware continues to be crafted for everyday use, finding its place in homes and restaurants alike.

Rather than being defined by a single style, Mino ware has continually evolved to suit changing lifestyles and needs. This versatility and timeless adaptability are at the heart of its enduring appeal.

About the Characteristics and Natural Variations of Ceramics

This product is crafted with the involvement of skilled artisans in the Mino ware pottery region of Japan.

Due to variations in the clay and glaze, kiln temperature and humidity, and exposure to heat during firing, subtle differences in color, texture, and shape may occur from piece to piece, even when the same production process is followed.

The following characteristics may be present. These are natural results of the ceramic manufacturing process and are considered part of the product's unique character, provided they do not affect its functionality.

Iron Spots

Small black or brown spots may appear on the surface.

These occur when iron naturally present in the clay oxidizes during firing and becomes visible on the surface. They are neither stains nor foreign substances, but a distinctive characteristic of ceramics made from natural clay.

Pinholes and Small Bumps

Tiny, pinprick-like holes or slight bumps may appear on the glazed surface.

These are formed when air or other components within the clay or glaze create bubbles during firing, leaving small marks on the surface.

Glaze Variations and Drips

Differences in glaze thickness and flow may result in variations in color intensity, sheen, or visible glaze drips.

These natural effects develop during the glazing process and as the glaze melts and flows inside the kiln, creating distinctive characteristics unique to ceramics.

Variations in Color and Texture

The temperature and exposure to heat within a kiln vary slightly depending on the position of each piece.

As a result, even when the same clay and glaze are used, individual pieces may differ in the depth of their black color, glossy or wet-look finish, color intensity, and surface texture.

Variations in Shape and Dimensions

Each piece is formed by pouring liquid clay into a plaster mold, followed by drying and firing. During these processes, the clay naturally shrinks.

This may result in slight variations in the shape of the rim, height, diameter, or thickness. Subtle lines or marks may also remain on the surface as a result of the clay's movement during molding.

These characteristics make each piece truly one of a kind. We invite you to appreciate the natural variations and unique beauty of each ceramic piece.

How Mino Ware Is Made

Shaping the clay, drying, applying glaze, and firing in a kiln. Even a seemingly simple ceramic plate is brought to life through a series of carefully executed steps.

1. Preparing the Clay

Ceramic raw materials are carefully blended and prepared to create a clay body suitable for shaping. The condition and composition of the clay play an important role in determining the strength and texture of the finished piece.

2. Molding

Each piece is formed using a technique called pressure slip casting, in which liquid clay, known as slip, is injected into a plaster mold under pressure.

Once the clay has reached sufficient firmness, it is carefully removed from the mold. The edges and surfaces of each piece are then individually refined to achieve the desired finish.

3. Drying and Bisque Firing

The clay is carefully dried to remove moisture while preventing warping and cracking. Since clay naturally shrinks during drying and firing, each piece is shaped with its final dimensions in mind.

Once thoroughly dried, the piece undergoes an initial firing, known as bisque firing, to stabilize its shape.

4. Glazing

Glaze is applied to the bisque-fired ceramic piece. The concentration and application of the liquid glaze influence the final color and texture after firing.

5. Final Firing

The piece is placed back into the kiln and fired at a high temperature of approximately 1,300°C, strengthening the ceramic body and melting the glaze. Different firing conditions, such as oxidation and reduction, also influence the final color and appearance.

About noble

"Wrap Your Everyday in Serenity."

I founded noble with the desire to bring quiet moments of refinement into everyday life.

I often find myself caught up in the busyness of daily life, with thoughts that never seem to stop. Even when I'm supposed to be resting, my mind remains tense.

In those moments, I've found comfort in the tranquility that fragrance brings.

As I explored different types of incense, I realized how few were designed to blend beautifully into our spaces and everyday lives.

I believe fragrance should be something more delicate, more beautiful. A scent that gently refines the atmosphere rather than fills a room. A fragrance that heightens the senses rather than demands attention.

At noble, we place great importance not only on the quality of our fragrances, but also on the form, materials, and design of each product. Everything we create is thoughtfully designed to bring a sense of harmony to a space, simply by being there.

"I've started looking forward to my evenings."

"I feel like I can finally take a deep breath."

Our hope is for fragrance to become a natural part of everyday life. That's why we're committed to thoughtfully guiding you in how to choose and enjoy incense, helping you discover moments of peace in your daily routine.
