Minoware, or Mino-yaki 美濃焼 refers to Japanese pottery that was produced in Mino Province around the towns of Tajimi, Toki, Mizunami, and Kawagoei in Gifu Prefecture. Made using the soil of Gifu Prefecture, Minoyaki is the oldest pottery found in Japan and originated in the 7th century.
Throughout Japan's tea ceremony culture, a common purpose is to pursue the natural state of beauty. Thus you will often see teacups and ceramics formed using natural and coarse clay at first. Mixed with different styles of ancient and modern times, you can see the evolution and tradition of these kilns.

Striking. Prettier in person. Thought it would be taller.
Perfect size and finish for my tea
I purchased this cup as part of a larger order a variety of teacups. They are all great, and this is my favorite! It has a lovely iridescent quality to the glaze that does quite come through in the picture. In hand it is light and has the feel of very high quality Japanese pottery.
