| Introduction Introduction |
Hideo Torazawa's kiln is located in Hannō City, Saitama Prefecture, where he continues to create pottery by the banks of a clear river where fireflies dance in June. His wife handles the administrative work at the kiln, and the couple is very close. Their daughter has also started making pottery with her father. It's truly a heartwarming story.
