White ceramics from Korea were very popular in Japan. At this time, white clay ceramics were not made in Japan. So to emulate this popular style, Japanese craftsman would submerge their ceramics in white glaze to the this popular style. Mr. & Mrs. Shinohara have created their own style from working in several different ceramic traditions all over Japan. Mr. & Mrs. Shinohara from Kyoto, blend many regional Japanese ceramic styles into their work. Takashi Shinohara worked in Arita (Saga prefecture), Seto (Aichi prefecture) and Kyoto. His wife Megumi worked in Hasami (Nagasaki prefecture). In 2016, Takashi and Megumi moved to Kyoto and started making their own ceramic products from the knowledge and experience they gained. The result of their work is a blend of many regional Japanese ceramic styles with extensive training in Aritayaki, Setoyaki and Hasamiyaki ceramic styles. Mr. & Mrs. Shinohara produce their own unique glazes and clay textures based on their previous experiences. From their creative use of traditional ceramic styles come unique pieces for daily use.
