- Active since Kamakura (1185–1333) period, at beginning of Muromachi period (1336) known to produce imitations of Chinese Sung Temmoku. Popular at 1522 (when a renga master donated 50 of them to a temple, for example). Many of these actually produced in Mino, though.

- 1582 not Temmoku, but han-zutsu shape began to be fired in Seto.
- Seto and Mino ceramics in 1573-1600 were:
- Seto Black : possibly trying to imitate 黒楽?
- Yellow Seto : characteristic for Old Seto.
- Shino (which is Seto White). Produced in Mino. Held in highest regard for Seto wares. Example: Hashihime. Richest native feeling of Japan, writes one critic. First temmoku shape, without decorations; later with iron slip decorations (1596-1615). Made from mogusa clay.
