Hideki Yanashita
Hideki Yanashita creates timeless ceramics rooted in tea aesthetics. Guided by the ideals of wabi and sabi, his work embraces natural materials, quiet forms, and the beauty of imperfection, beyond trends and time. He is known for wood-fired Raku, Yakishime, Ido, and Oribe styles rooted in wabi-sabi aesthetics.
Iga, located in the mountains of Mie Prefecture, is home to one of Japan’s oldest pottery traditions. Iga-yaki 伊賀焼 dates back to the 7th century and is known for its rough, fire-marked surfaces and strong ties to the aesthetics of wabi-sabi. Made from highly refractory clay with embedded feldspar, Iga ware is traditionally wood-fired, often resulting in natural ash glazing and dramatic kiln effects. These characteristics made it a favorite of tea practitioners during the Momoyama period and continue to influence contemporary tea ceramics today.
