Mino ware (Mino yaki in Japanese) is a type of Japanese ceramics with a long history, which is produced within the Tono area of Gifu Prefecture. Instead of a focus on one single style, it has a variety of distinguishable types of pottery. Specifically there are over 15 types of Mino ware ceramics that are designated as traditional crafts.

The Hyozangama kiln has a long tradition of pottery production within Japan. When Yozaemon, the fourth generation of the Hyozangama kiln, presented vessels to Nobunaga Oda, he was praised for his technique; and when presented to Oda Nobunaga he was praised for his technique and given a red seal and the family name of "Hashiba" to authorise the production of pottery.
