It began to be produced in the mid-Edo period and has a history of approximately 240 years. In 1976, four types—white porcelain, sometsuke (blue and white) pieces, celadon, and tenmoku (iron glaze)—were designated as national traditional crafts, and in 2005, it was designated as an intangible cultural asset of Ehime Prefecture. There are nearly 100 kilns in and around Tobe Town, and the characteristics of Tobe ware are said to be its white porcelain with blue patterns, its plump, thick, unadorned shapes, and the hardness of its material. Additionally, the arabesque pattern is a representative design, and other traditional patterns include the shepherd's purse pattern, the tokusa (horsetail) pattern, and the sun pattern. Currently, while inheriting traditional techniques and patterns, new designs of Tobe ware are also being created.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 20px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 20px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrecautions for Use from Tousaigama Nagato Pottery\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 27px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 27px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e〇 Since original clay and glaze are used, crazing that resembles patterns will appear.
