There is a "pottery path" filled with traditional houses, workshops, galleries, and buildings with unique character and charm. The path has remained unchanged, keeping its pottery-town atmosphere unique to Tokoname. Visitors and locals come here to shop, and enjoy the sites and history of this small, charming town.
I have been to some of the shops in Tokoname several of times; but I have never walked the historic pottery path. Knowing our time in Nagoya was coming to an end, this was a must-do on my list! Thankfully Yumi went with me, showed me around, and enjoyed shopping for pottery together.
Those of you who know me well know that I collect pitchers. This was the PERFECT addition to my collection. It has a unique design and is loaded with beautiful blue and turquoise colors; but most importantly, it was handmade by a local artist in Japan - and it will always remind me of our incredible journey living abroad.
