We are honored to bring you the fruit of hard labor by our friends, the Hori family, a team of women who own and manage a 100-year-old tea plantation.
Along the slopes of the mountains in Wazuka lies rows of neatly trimmed terraces of tea bushes. With its fresh air and wave in temperature variation during the day, it is the ideal climate for its production. 2 hectares (5 acres) of this region belong to Kirokuen, a tea plantation succeeded, owned, and managed by a mother and her two daughters
Incorporate Wabi-sabi into your home with this breathtaking vase collection by one of the most talented potters in Japan, Myoshu Wataru.
Having been introduced to ceramics at age 4 through a pottery class, Myoshu has been honing in on the craft for over 25 years. Opening his own workshop in Kameoka, his ceramics are growing in demand for his approach in representing time and space.
The Japanese way of keeping in harmony with the seasons and the local environment will always be at our core. That’s why Pieces of Japan is committed to prioritizing the sustainability of craftsmen and the natural resources that support them.
We believe that in sharing beautiful, durable, handmade products that last for generations, we can take steps away from our current throwaway culture to create meaningful connections with the things we own.
