Cocoro Gallery

Cocoro Gallery is now run by a 4th generation family and together, this husband, wife and son team aim to spread joy both through their pottery pieces and their connected cafe!

With approximately 40% of the pieces available in their gallery made by the family, you'll be able to see their distinct style shine through in each and every piece which celebrates the fun and joy that a simple dinnerware can bring through everyday use.

The remaining 60% features tableware including wooden utensils as well as pottery pieces from craftsmen in both Mashiko and Minoyaki from Gifu prefecture.
