As industrialisation advanced in Japan from the late 19th to the early 20th century, traditional handicrafts faced the threat of decline. Soetsu Yanagi devoted himself to collecting and preserving mingei, spreading awareness of the beauty residing in regional crafts. Together with Shoji Hamada, Bernard Leach and others, he promoted the mingei movement, and through the idea of "mingei" showed the beauty and value of things used in daily life. This book introduces that thinking and the continuation of Japan's craft culture.
