Izumi-Ya is one of the oldest kilns in the region, dedicated to the production of bonsai pots in Tokoname since the time of Matsushita Masuhisa, father of Matsushita Masuo (Zenigo). In its early days, the workshop crafted its pieces entirely by hand, maintaining traditional local pottery techniques. The term “Zenigo” appears to be an imprecise transliteration; “Senshirinsei” is more accurate. However, the name “Zenigo” has become popular and widespread in Europe.
