Our Process
Since our inception, Kuriēto has been fortunate and privileged to forge strong relationships with artisans across Japan working with ceramic and glass. From city to city, region to region, the tools and techniques vary, producing pieces unique to individual artisans and families. For most, their methodology is a closely guarded secret. And as true artists, their wares are available only through few and trusted sources.
