The annual "Setonoichi" has started on August 6, 7 and 8 for three days.

Unfortunately, it was a start of rain, but many people came to see and selected items.

Some shops have brands such as Edo Kiriko, Bizen ware, and Arita ware, as well as household goods and lacquerware.

Introducing "Why Ningyocho Seto Festival".

　In the Edo period, the Ningyocho area, which was sandwiched between the Nihonbashi River and the Hakozaki River, was convenient for sea transportation, so sake and sand.　　

　It prospered very much as a collection point for daily necessities such as sugar, soy sauce and grain.

　Along with them, ceramic wholesalers in Hamacho and Kakigara-cho spread the household in the Kanto region.

　"Setonoichi", which conveys the liveliness of the past, is held every year for three days in the first week of August.

At the Great Kannon Teramae, there is also a "Rokuro Experience Class".

It seems that it has already started.

This is a membership fee of 1500 yen (including postage).

"Would you like to make only one work in the world with your own hands?

　I'll put a lot of glaze and deliver it to your house. Yes, it is.
