Ohi Museum, Ceramics museum in Hashiba-cho, Japan.

The Ohi Museum displays extensive collections of traditional Japanese pottery pieces across three exhibition rooms, each dedicated to different periods and artists.

Established in 1990, the museum preserves the legacy of Ohi ceramics, a pottery tradition that originated in the 17th century with the first master potter.

The museum exhibits works from successive generations of Ohi potters, demonstrating the evolution of Japanese ceramic techniques and artistic expressions through time.

Located within walking distance from Kanazawa Station, visitors can explore both permanent collections and temporary exhibitions focusing on ceramic artistry.

The building, designed by Kengo Kuma in 2014, incorporates local materials such as bamboo and Japanese paper to create contemporary architectural spaces.
