The Miwa family has established a top position in the world of Hagi ware and continues to enjoy immense acclaim and popularity. He was the younger brother of the 10th Miwa Kyusetsu (Kyuwa), who was designated an Important Intangible Cultural Property of Hagi ware, and inherited the Miwa family after his brother retired. The 11th Miwa Kyusetsu (Jusetsu), who was himself designated a Living National Treasure of Hagi ware, created an outstanding piece. He trained in traditional techniques under his brother Kyusetsu, and later studied under Kawakita Handeishi. He studied tea ceremony pottery and is said to have devoted himself to training without a moment's rest for 30 years until he became independent, leaving behind many wonderful pieces that will be passed down to future generations.
