We exhibited a large lapis lazuli oil drop Tenmoku porcelain plate measuring 1.5 shaku (3.5 cm) and four matcha tea bowls in the Shine Hat exhibition room at the Expo Hall of the World Exposition, Japan.

Ambassador Koji Haneda, representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, also visited the exhibition venue and viewed the works. Despite the limited exhibition space, the message was spread to the world, making this a meaningful presentation. We are very pleased to have been given the opportunity to exhibit at another World Expo, following on from Expo 2005 Aichi.
