About Wasyugama

At Wasyugama, we crush raw Bizen clay, knead it by hand, and carefully shape each piece before loading it into the kiln. The wood firing lasts about seven days, creating natural patterns and colors born from the dialogue between earth and flame. No two pieces are ever the same. We cherish the subtle lines and forms that emerge through the rhythm of handwork, and strive to create pieces that blend gently into modern life, bringing a quiet sense of richness to those who use them.

By Car	It takes about 7 minutes by car from JR Kojima Station or the Kojima Interchange on the Seto-Chuo Expressway. Drive along Route 430 until you reach a traffic light marked “Komoike Higashi.” Turn right (toward the south) at that light. After about 30 meters, turn left at the garbage collection station, and drive up the hill. Follow the curve, then turn left again — continue to the top of the hill and you’ll arrive at Wasyugama Pottery Studio.
By Bus	From JR Kojima Station, take a bus bound for Kurashiki — either the Shionasu Line or the Kojoike Line. Get off at the Komoike 1-chome stop, then walk about 10 minutes to reach Wasyugama Pottery Studio.
