湯町窯は島根県玉湯町の、日本の名湯玉造温泉のほど近く、穏やかな住宅地の一角にはございます。

Due to heavy rain every day, the rented dehumidifier is also very useful.

It was a little sunny this morning, but the chocolate croissant I bought earlier has melted into muddy, so it seems that the temperature has not dropped. I was off guard.

Today, I will send you a photo of the cafe where you can see the sea before.

This is a cafe at the tip of Nishio City, but you can overlook the sea.

It was hard to find because I couldn’t see the building because it was down the road.

The word of mouth said that I would wait for hours, but there was an event and I went there just before the store closed, so I was able to enter easily.

There was a jazz concert on that day, and if I knew it, I definitely wanted to participate there.

It is divided into a terrace seat, a glass room and a room with a fireplace, and the back seats are raised so that you can enjoy the view, making it interesting.

I tried to imitate Instagrammer, but unfortunately it didn’t work. Tomorrow’s Tanabata, I hope that I will be able to take good pictures.

I was greedy and had curry and herbal tea.

Perhaps it’s a profession, but lately I’ve been more interested in vessels than food.

Suddenly, when I looked it up from the website, it seems that I am particular about vessels such as Shimane’s Fujina Yaki Yumachi kiln, Koka city’s pottery in Mie prefecture, and Shigaraki ware Bungoro kiln.

Today, I investigated the Fujina ware Yumachi kiln.

Fujina ware was opened during the Kan’en period (1748-1751) in the middle of the Edo period. During the Edo period, it was developed with the encouragement of the Matsue domain. It features a yellow comb pattern using lead glaze, and in the Showa period, under the guidance of Soetsu Yanagi and Bernard Leach in the folk art movement, it broke new ground as folk art.

The characteristics of the Yumachi kiln are the simple and simple shape created using locally produced clay and glaze, and the deep and vivid colors such as yellow glaze, sea glaze, straw glaze, and green glaze.

The vessels of the Yumachi kiln, which are easy to use and comfortable to live in, are carefully inherited from the “heart of creation” and “ceramic technique” learned from Mr. Kanjiro Kawai, Mr. Shoji Hamada, and Mr. Bernard Leach who once visited this kiln. It is said that it delivers abundant moisture to the lives of users.

The unique pattern of “slipware” drawn with clay, directly from Bernard Leach, the shape of the cup handle with “easy to hold” and “beauty”, and similar to the British Galena glaze. The warm style of the traditional “yellow glaze” of Fujina ware has the loveliness of Scandinavian and British pottery.

Yumachi Kiln is located in a peaceful residential area in Tamayu-cho, Shimane Prefecture, near the famous Yumachi Onsen in Japan.

Opened in 1918. In the early Showa period, Takashi Fukuma, the predecessor, was deeply impressed by the folk art movement and began to work on Western dishes. Currently, along with Mr. Ryushi Fukuma, the third generation, Mr. Yosuke, his son, and his family, he seems to bring the tradition of Fujina ware to the breath of a new era.

It’s nice to think that traditional vessels are inherited and lined up in modern fashionable cafes.

I also wanted to find my favorite bowl, which was a little expensive, instead of the gift plate I received at the wedding ceremony.

See you soon
