Elevating Dining Experiences with Arita Porcelain

Yamahei Kiln, a historic gem nestled in Arita Town, Saga Prefecture, stands as a beacon of Japanese porcelain artistry. Founded by Hirasaku Yamamoto – descendant of the esteemed Yamasho Kiln – Yamahei traces its lineage to the 17th century, when Arita-yaki porcelain first captivated the world with its luminous beauty and refined craftsmanship. After World War II, the kiln was reimagined by Shoji Yamamoto, and today, under the guidance of Hirofumi Yamamoto, its legacy continues to evolve with grace and precision.

With an unwavering devotion to the art of porcelain, Yamahei Kiln has perfected the creation of tableware that astonishes and delights. Their collections, including the ethereal “Eggshell” series, showcase the kiln’s mastery of ultra-thin, high-translucency porcelain – each piece a harmonious blend of strength and delicacy. These vessels are not merely functional; they are tactile poems, elevating each meal into a moment of quiet reverence.

In the present day, Yamahei Kiln continues to innovate, weaving centuries-old techniques with contemporary sensibilities. Their porcelain creations are more than tableware – they are expressions of Japanese heritage, designed to enrich everyday rituals with beauty, intention, and joy. At Yamahei Kiln, every piece is crafted to bring a smile, transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary.
