Seto ware (瀬戸焼, Seto-yaki) is a type of Japanese pottery, stoneware, and ceramics produced in and around the city of Seto in Aichi Prefecture, Japan.[1] The Japanese term for it, setomono, is also used as a generic term for all pottery.[2] Seto was the location of one of the Six Ancient Kilns of Japan.[3]
