Along with Shigaraki ware, which is one of Japan's six oldest kilns, located across the mountain, Iga Marubashira has produced a large amount of high-quality fireproof clay since ancient times, and as a result, Iga ware specializes in making earthenware pots, earthenware bottles, sesame roasting vessels, and other utensils that can be placed over open flames. It is known for this. To this day, the area continues to make everyday items that take advantage of the characteristics of Iga clay, making it one of Japan's leading ceramic production areas.
