Welcome to the world of Ichibokuan,

Our President, Shinichi Ichiki, was born in 1967 in Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture. From a young age, he learned calligraphy and seal carving from his father, sparking a deep-seated passion for art. He started his career as a painter in 1989 and lived in France for five years. He subsequently shifted his focus to creating murals for temples and designing for stage performances and later expanded his skills to include pottery. He is currently an instructor at the Ikenobo. In 2023, he plans to open a new kiln in Kusu Town, Oita Prefecture.
