In 1599, a step-like climbing kiln was built in Hasami Town, and the creation of ceramics began. During the latter part of the Edo period (1603–1868), the town became an area with a high production volume of sometsuke (cobalt blue underglaze) and celadon seiji porcelain. Hasami ware transformed everyday dining for ordinary people, adding richness and vibrancy to daily life. In recent years, modern designs and color usage has attracted the attention of young people, making this a popular brand.
