Sometime around the year 1600 the first Takatori kiln was constructed at the foot of Mt Takatori in Fukuoka.

A favorite of the Kuroda lords of the time, its production and use was closely guarded until later in the 19th century when the domain system was abolished, freeing it up to be more widely used.
