Ishigaki-yaki Pottery Studio

4.0

This pottery is located along Prefectural Route 79 in Nagura, Ishigaki City. They create works of Ishigakiyaki, an original style of pottery. Ishigakiyaki expresses the blue of the oceans of Ishigaki Island by combining pottery glazed using the now-uncommon Yuteki Tenmoku technique with glasswork. Visitors can try their hand at making Ishigakiyaki, shisa figurines, and other items at one of their pottery classes (reservation required).
