Jiro Kinjo is known as a maker of everyday miscellaneous goods. The work of learning the traditional pottery techniques of Tsuboya in Okinawa and creating something quite natural without action is highly regarded. However, they also usually create unique and beautiful works for matcha cups and platters, which are made with a high level of skill and intention. It's a free thing that easily goes beyond the promises of matcha tea cups and the decorativeness of a platter. These matcha cups and platters will be exhibited during the new year of 2025. At the entrance gallery, as a museum shop project, a wide range of folk crafts will be exhibited and sold, such as private kilns from around the world centered on ceramics, and works by Kawai Takeichi's nephew Kawai Takeichi.
