Yamanokuchi Kiln - "Pig" bowl set

🐷 From Yamanokuchi Kiln – Yasuo’s playful “pig” bowls!
Look closely and you’ll spot a round snout at the bottom and a spiral tail on the other side of each bowl. Such a fun and charming design while still keeping the tradition alive. I love how Yasuo designs each piece with joy and a touch of romance—always full of character!

Born in 1972, Yasuo Tsujiguchi is the third generation of Yamanokuchi Kiln. Before his grandfather started his own kiln,  for decades he was working as a craftsman at one of the legendary ceramic company in Amakusa area. Following his grandfather, Tsujiguchi also started his career at the same ceramic company where his grandfather used to work. After many years of experience as a craftsman at the company, he came back to his own family kiln to take over his family own business.
