Footnote

長次郎 (Chōjirō) is one of the most famous and influential figures in the history of Raku ware (楽焼), a traditional Japanese pottery style closely associated with the Japanese tea ceremony. He was the founder of the Raku pottery family, and his simple, rustic, hand-molded tea bowls have set the standard for generations of potters. His work emphasizes the wabi-sabi aesthetic—appreciating simplicity, natural beauty, and the imperfection of hand-molded objects.

The Kimori term ("木守") refers to the ancient practice of leaving a few fruits on the tree after the harvest as a symbol of ensuring future prosperity. In the context of tea ceremony bowls, it can symbolize a continuation of tradition and heritage, which resonates deeply within the Raku family's philosophy.
