The innovative design that sets it apart from the traditional Arita porcelain design style was evaluated at domestic and overseas exhibitions, and in 1910 he was appointed as a purveyor to the Miyauchi Ministry. We produce works with unique aesthetics that are proud of to the world.

■ The charm of Fukagawa porcelain

“Fukagawa blue” and “white porcelain” created by unique technology
The gradation of dyeing (indigo) that is created from Fukagawa Seigyo’s original “tsukedami” technique has been called “Fukagawa blue” since its establishment, and it is based on “white porcelain” created by high temperature firing at 1350 degrees. Realizes an elegant and transparent texture with porcelain skin.

Elaborate construction that fits people who have gathered the work of craftsmen
“Porcelain without sophistication is never called Kogei”, and gathers skilled craftsmen for each process such as molding, painting, glazing, and firing.
In order to ensure long-lasting use, we are thoroughly manufacturing equipment that fits people in details, such as shape and feel that fits in the hand and optimal weight.

A unique design “Fukagawa style” that sets it apart from Arita ware
Aiming at the modernization of Arita ware quickly, he constantly carries out design innovation while inheriting the traditional dyeing technique. A unique design that transforms the traditional Arita ware design style by combining motifs such as morning glory, hydrangea, iris, and Mt. “Fukagawa style” was established.

Eighty Years After the War: A Reflection on the Preciousness of Ordinary Life YUKIKAZE – In Theaters Nationwide from August 15, 2025

“To Return Alive, To Bring Others Home Alive”

Opening nationwide on August 15, 2025—marking eighty years since the end of World War II—YUKIKAZE is a feature film based on the true story of the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) destroyer Yukikaze, a vessel that rescued countless lives amid the horrors of war. A press screening was held in advance at the Sony Pictures screening room.

The destroyer Yukikaze, which served throughout the Pacific War, was renowned for rescuing numerous sailors thrown into the sea during fierce naval battles, surviving to the end of the war virtually unscathed. It earned the legendary moniker “the lucky ship.” This film brings to life the ship’s heroic journey, alongside the lives of those who persevered through one of the most turbulent eras in modern history.

Leading the cast is Yutaka Takenouchi as Captain Kazutoshi Terasawa—a fictional amalgamation inspired by the real-life captains of Yukikaze. Hiroshi Tamaki portrays Petty Officer First Class Kohei Hayase. Supporting roles are delivered by an ensemble of acclaimed actors including Daiken Okudaira, Rena Tanaka, Kanji Ishimaru, and Toru Masuoka. Kiichi Nakai delivers a commanding performance as Vice Admiral Seiichi Itō, the Second Fleet Commander of the IJN who met his fate aboard the battleship Yamato.

In today’s world, once again shaken by division and violence, YUKIKAZE poses an urgent question to those of us living in the peace that others fought to protect: Are we once again treading the path of past mistakes? As collective memory of the war fades, this film becomes ever more vital—a call to reflect on the true value of peace.
