Since ancient times, Chinese writers have referred to the brush, Chinese ink, inkstone, and paper as the four stationery treasures. In particular, inkstones were used for many years, so there are many superb items. Akama inkstones have been produced in Akamagaseki, a part of Shimonoseki, and were loved by writers and military commanders in the Kamakura and Edo periods. In particular, when Yoshida Shoin, a spirit in the late Edo period, bid farewell to his family in his will, he also asked them to enshrine the Akama inkstone, that he loved, in his house. It is still enshrined in the Shoin Shrine in Hagi. Feel for yourself the attractive touch of the precious inkstone that has been such an important part of history.

The history of Hagi ware traces back to the Azuchi Momoyama period when Oda Nobunaga and Toyotomi Hideyoshi protected Sen no Rikyu and used the tea ceremony for politics, triggering the considerable development of Hagi ware. Hagi ware features the characteristic and unique soft texture that results from loose clay with little densification. The loose clay results in high permeability, water retention, and heat retention. Water permeates the fine cracks (kannyu) on the surface, which are caused by the different shrinkage rates of clay and glaze, and reaches from inside the vessel to the surface. This permeation causes the vessel colors to gradually change as it is used, creating an indescribable refined atmosphere. Most Hagi ware vessels are made in plain shapes, making use of the clay texture. Painting and other types of decoration are very rarely applied. A unique atmosphere is created through the combination of clay composition, glazing level, spatula lines, and brush lines with accidental effects from the flame and other factors during firing.
