Ito Kan was born into a potter's family, carrying on the craft of his father Hitoshi Tachibana, a renowned ceramic artist. Kan developed his own unique style and glaze techniques a nd established his own kiln in 2006 before settling in Okayama Prefecture in 2011. On my first trip to Japan I came across his work, and have been a fan ever since. I use pieces of his just about every day at home. Outside of the city, in a more rural setting - a river runs along his workshop...In the fall of 2022 I finally got to visit his studio, where the below images were taken. Handmade in Oakayama, Japan by Ito Kan. Show more
