Here are two leads
Tsuboya potteries,(Jar Shop) outside of Naha produce two types of ware:
joyachi (highfire sino-korean-japan style) and arayachi, a rough ware
similar to the earthenware Korean Kim-chee jars.
Yonabaru, on the opposite side of the island produces earthenware, mostly
tiles, typical of those used in roofing over Asia.
These tiles and roof forms/slopes evoke an image of the house merging
with the surrounding mountians, having a subtle effect on your psyche. At
a viseral level the Buddhist way seems to take effect. Such was the
effect at Hainsa in central Korea.
