| NANBU ironware |
known for Nambu iron kettles |
32C005 |
 |
Nanbu ironware is said to have begun in the mid-17th century, when the
lord of the Nanbu domain invited a kettle maker from Kyoto to Morioka to
make kettles for tea ceremonies. Since then, the craft has continued to
develop thanks to the availability of high-quality raw materials and the
domain's efforts to protect and nurture the craft, employing many casters
and kettle makers from all over the country, and the products it produced
ranged from tea kettles to everyday items for a wide range of uses. The
famous Nanbu Tetsubin (iron kettle) began in the 18th century when tea
kettles were made smaller and improved, making them easy to use for the
general public. Today, it is loved by many people for its excellent quality,
and has established an unshakable position and brand as a representative
traditional Japanese craft. The iron kettles are popular due to their high
artistic value, and some manufacturers are also focusing on exporting to
foreign countries.
