These plates were crafted by Raku Tannyu (1795-1854), of the esteemed Raku family in Kyoto. Since the Raku Family established their kiln and home at the present location in Kyoto, for 450 years, Raku's successive generations have passed down the family technique and tradition there. The method of making the bowl and other potteries has stayed the same since the birth of Raku ware.
The present 14th generation Raku, Raku Kichizaemon, writes,
"The tradition is not only to be maintained.
What is essential in the tradition is eternally
evolving through the eyes of the present.
What matters are those eyes that could perceive
the tradition from the present perspective, which
is the very proof of our existence."
