The Six Ancient Kilns (六古窯 Rokkoyō) is a category developed by Koyama Fujio (小山富士夫 1900–1975) in the post-war period to describe the most important ceramic kilns of traditional Japanese pottery, in emulation of the Five Great Kilns of Song China. In the Japanese cases a traditional regional style of pottery, produced at numerous actual kiln sites, is meant.
