At Jikonka Seki, located right in the center of Seki’s charming townscape as winter approaches, we invite you to enjoy a special time discovering beautiful handcrafted pieces.
Yuka Ubukata creates her pottery in Mashiko, Tochigi Prefecture. Her vessels, featuring white and celadon glazes that feel both serene and warm, blend traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design, enriching everyday life.
This exhibition will feature popular mugs that make you look forward to your daily teatime, delicately beautiful peony-patterned plates, and tea utensils specially crafted for this occasion.
During the mornings of the first two days of the exhibition (December 5 and 6), we will host a tea ceremony with Ms. Ubukata and Ludai Kuo, a close friend of Jikonka based in Taipei.
Enjoy a rare opportunity to experience the world of tea as presented by Ms. Kuo using Ms. Ubukata’s tea utensils in the tranquil setting of Seki.
Why not visit Seki and experience its beautiful winter light? We look forward to welcoming you.
