– Eijiro Tokunaga’s Profile
Born in 1977 in Arita, Saga prefecture. He trained in Kyoto for ten years to master pottery even though he was born as the second son of Tokko Klin, which produces porcelain from generation to generation. Now, he succeeds his family business as a thrower and works actively both in Japan and overseas. He pursues his original expression that unites traditions of Arita-ware and the techniques learned in Kyoto.
