Hideki Yanashita
Short Bio
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.
"Ever since I was impressed by the wabi-sabi world of the Momoyama period, I have been deepening my own understanding of that worldview.Inspired by the Zen phrase “Fuekryukou” (continuity and change), I create pottery every day with renewed determination.I’m not sure how much I’ve been able to express, but I would be happy if you could take a look at my work."
Hideki Yanashita is a Japanese ceramicist whose work ranges from traditional tea ware to sculptural forms. Working with natural materials and a strong affinity for wood-firing, he creates vessels that embrace imperfection, texture, and quiet beauty. His repertoire includes iconic Japanese styles like Raku (red and black), Yakishime, Ido, and Oribe, blending historical resonance with personal expression.
Hideki Yanashita’s work is deeply rooted in the aesthetics of tea. Rather than following trends, he seeks timeless forms that reflect the quiet beauty of nature and the everyday. His ceramics embrace the principles of wabi and sabi—values essential to the world of tea—expressed through natural materials, subtle textures, and unpretentious simplicity.
Our gallery, studio, and tea space are a hub for experiencing and sharing the art of ceramics and tea.
Similar to the concept of “Utsuwa-galleries” in Japan, we are holding monthly exhibitions of unique ceramicists from Japan, China and Europe.
We also regularly hosting Workshops and Tea Experiences.
I love it. It is very elegant the form and colour brings me joy.

Super Event! Ich freue mich solche Veranstaltung zu erleben. Vielen Dank für die Organisation.
It's very sweet and potent. I think it will age great.
Endlich eine Seite die ohne hohe Versandkosten in Deutschland liefert. Ich wollte die matcha Sorten dieser Marke schon lange testen, jetzt konnte ich es endlich und wurde nicht enttäuscht. Die Lieferung erfolgte recht schnell, das Matchapulver hat eine kräftige, saftig grüne Farbe. Beim aufschäumen probierte ich kurz und war erstaunt über die Samtigkeit. Er schmeckt sehr gut und leicht ohne Bitterkeit, ich denke auch gut für Anfänger ich trinke immer Matcha Latte aber den könnte man auch pur trinken. Damit kann man nichts falsch machen und ich kann es jedem empfehlen. Werde die anderen Sorten noch bestellen.
