Yokotaya-gama is an anagama-style kiln studio located in Yomitan-son Yachimun no Sato, Okinawa. The kiln's master, Minoru Chinana, was born in Yomitan in 1954. After graduating from university he apprenticed under Jitsusei Omine, and in 2002 opened his kiln on his ancestral land. His work uses Okinawan red clay and natural glazes, shaped by hand-building and wheel-throwing, and is distinguished by gosu blue and green glazes alongside classical motifs such as grapes and arabesque. He continues to work alongside his son, the second-generation Kiyoto Chinana.
