• Visit the studio and gallery shop of a Kutani Ware ceramics maker, known for over a century for their gorgeous ornaments. The Miyasou Ceramics studio is rarely opened to the public, making this a precious opportunity to see the production process firsthand — or to discuss possible Kutani Ware product commissions directly. Guests are given a guided tour of each step of the process involved in producing unglazed bases for ceramic ornaments, from start to finish, and are also welcome to peruse the studio’s gallery.
• Make the most of this exclusive chance to visit a craft artisan at work, and to see the workshop. For over a century, Miyasou Ceramics has been a maker of fine Kutani Ware ornaments — even in an area known for its ornament makers, this studio stands out as one of the largest.

The visit begins with a guided tour of the studio, with step-by-step explanations of the artisanal work that goes into making Kutani Ware ornaments. Guests can see the steps of production from up close, then visit the studio gallery, or talk in more depth with a ceramic artisan to discuss potential commissions of Kutani Ware ornaments.
