What’s the Hasami Porcelain Festival?
This week-long festival draws pottery lovers from across Japan and beyond. It’s one of Nagasaki Prefecture’s largest Golden Week events, attracting over 250,000 visitors last year alone! Around 150 local kilns and pottery producers set up booths offering a huge variety of Hasami Porcelain — from classic everyday dishes to one-of-a-kind artisanal pieces — many at special discounted festival prices.
Hasami Porcelain is known for blending traditional craftsmanship with sleek, modern design. It’s practical, beautiful, and perfect for daily use — the kind of pottery that turns your morning coffee or home-cooked meal into a little moment of joy.
Whether you're a serious ceramics collector or just looking for a unique souvenir, this is the ultimate place to find something special.
