Kiyosato Porcelain Museum

The Kiyosato Porcelain Museum is a ceramics museum in the Hokuto region that houses a varied collection of porcelain works spanning different periods and styles. The displays combine historical pieces with modern creations by regional artists.

The museum was established in 1997 and occupies a location previously defined by silk production. This transformation marked a shift in the region's cultural focus toward ceramic arts.

The museum displays works by local potters and porcelain makers whose craft traditions continue in this region. You can see how traditional techniques remain visible in the contemporary pieces on display.

The location is easy to reach and clearly marked for visitors. Guided tours and demonstrations of manufacturing techniques help you understand the craftsmanship involved.

The building design references traditional ceramic kilns, giving the architecture its own character. This thoughtful connection between form and craft history creates a tangible link to the artisan traditions.
