Mashiko
Mashiko is famous for its pottery, known as Mashiko yaki (益子焼). Mashiko is the site of Saimyoji temple, one of the oldest temples in Tochigi prefecture, and the shrine of the Utsunomiya han, located in Kami-Obaa. Large noborigama kilns were first founded there in 1853, by immigrant potters from the neighboring pottery community Kasama in Ibaraki prefecture. Simple and rustic in style, the main glazes are a clear wood ash glaze, a white rice husk ash glaze, black and kaki (persimmon), sometimes decorated with enamel red, yellow and green. These are worlds apart from the courtly ceramics of Kyoto but yet very Japanese. Pottery has been made since Jomon times (over 10,000 years ago) in Mashiko, but modern Mashiko yaki dates only to 1853. The style was popularized by the potter Shoji Hamada. He was designated as NINGEN KOKUHO (Living National Treasure) in 1955. Because of Hamada, Mashiko yaki has been viewed as a good example of Mingei (Folkcraft) pottery.
Mashiko 益子 is a town located in the south east area of Tochigi prefecture, approximately 140km away from the central Tokyo. Producing quality clay, Mashiko has developed as a pottery town known for Mashiko-yaki pottery, where many potters have studios and many kinds of potteries are sold at stores. The number of the pottery studios and the stores reaches nearly 350 in all.
Since 1966, Mashiko Pottery Market is held twice a year, for about 10 days in spring, and 4 or 5 days in autumn. Not only from Mashiko town, pottery artists and venders from all over Japan also join the market to sell various potteries. This popular market is so large that it will take one day to look around all the stalls there. It is recommended to visit early in the morning (It starts at 9:00AM) as it also gets crowded in the afternoon. During the 11-day event in spring 2014, more than 400,000 people visited the market.
While staying with a Japanese family, having dinner together at their house, you will soon notice that the Japanese has her/his own chopsticks and rice bowl (Ochawan), and it is almost like a taboo to use those of others, even people in the family. It seems Japanese people have a strong attachment for their own everyday dinnerware. Whatever else it might be, finding a very favorite ones at pottery markets is an attraction for Japanese people, and it will of course be a fun for anybody.

Mashiko || Saimyoji Temple and the Laughing Enma: Guardian of the Afterlife
After a year of pining, I finally made the trip to Mashiko! Mashiko is famous for pottery, but my main desire was to visit Saimyoji Temple and collect the goshuin of the laughing Enma who is the guardian/judge of hell.
Mashiko's got a chill vibe and I kind of want to move there now.

Mashiko, Japan, is a pastoral town on the edge of the mountains that skirt the northern edge of the Kanto Plain. It's about 100km north of Tokyo. It is famous for it's beautiful robust pottery. Every year there are 2 pottery festivals held. This is footage from the 2018 spring event.
If you live in Tokyo I highly recommend the visit up. You can come by bus tour or take the train up though this is a little more difficult. It is a beautiful old-fashioned Japanese town with lots of treasures waiting to be discovered.
If you are visiting Japan from abroad and wish to have an authentic Japanese experience then look no further than Mashiko. It doesn't get more authentic than this.

J. Sanford Saltus Award 2019 presented to Mashiko
The American Numismatic Society Presents its 2019 J. Sanford Saltus Award for Excellence in Medallic Art to Mashiko.
With opening remarks by Dr. Gilles Bransbourg, Executive Director of the American Numismatic Society and a lecture on the origins of the award by Mr. Donald Scarinici of the Citizens Coinage Advisory Commission.
The American Numismatic Society is pleased to announce that Mashiko is the recipient of the Society’s prestigious 2019 J. Sanford Saltus Award for Signal Achievement in the Art of the Medal.
Mashiko grew up in her father’s home city of Kyoto, Japan. In 1962 she moved to the United States, and in 1964 to New York City. There, in 1993, she founded Medialia … Rack and Hamper Gallery, a showplace for contemporary medallic art. Seven years later she founded New Approach, Inc., a nonprofit organization that promotes emerging artists and curators and serves as a contemporary medallic-art research center.
As a prolific sculptor and medallic artist, Mashiko has received numerous awards, including the American Numismatic Association’s Excellence in Medallic Sculpture Award and the Grand Prix at the XXXV Fédération Internationale de la Médaille d'Art (FIDEM) Congress. Her stone sculptures, medallic art, silkscreen prints, and drawn illustrations are in numerous public collections around the world, including the Cincinnati Art Museum, the National Museum of Taiwan, Kyoto City Hall, the Queens Museum (New York), the American Numismatic Society, the American Numismatic Association, and the British Museum. Her many commissions, from organizations such as the British Art Medal Society and the New York Numismatic Club, include one for a memorial granite headstone for the feminist activist and author Betty Friedan. She has also been invited to submit designs to the U.S. Mint.
In addition to her extensive creative endeavors, she has also been a tireless teacher of her craft, offering courses in medallic and stone sculpture at The University of the Arts, Philadelphia, for two decades (1993 – 2013). Since 2001 she has also conducted private book-art, medal and urushi workshops.
“Mashiko is unquestionably deserving of the Award,” noted Saltus Committee Chairman Donald Scarinci, “not only for her wonderfully creative medallic art, but for all that she has done to teach and promote the medal as well. We are especially pleased to present the Award to her this year, the centennial year of the Award.”
The ceremony will take place at the ANS headquarters in New York City on Thursday, December 12, 2019, at 6 P.M. The Saltus Medal will be presented to Mashiko by ANS Executive Director Dr. Gilles Bransbourg.
The award was created with a grant to the American Numismatic Society by J. Sanford Saltus in 1913 to recognize and encourage excellence in the art of the medal. The first Saltus Award was presented in 1919; the silver award medal was designed by the prominent German-born numismatic and architectural sculptor Adolph Alexander Weinman.
Mashiko joins the ranks of other significant artists who have been awarded the medal including, among dozens of others, James Earl Frazer (1919), Victor D. Brenner (1922), Paul Manship (1925), Lee Lawrie (1937), Donald DeLue (1967), Kauko Räsänen (1986), Gustaaf Hellegers (2001), and João Duarte (2011), and Bogomil Nikolov (2017).
The American Numismatic Society, organized in 1858 and incorporated in 1865 in New York State, operates as a research museum under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and is recognized as a publicly supported organization under section 170(b)(1)(A)(vi) as confirmed on November 1, 1970.
