Location of Kasama in Ibaraki prefecture
Kasama (笠間市 Kasama-shi) es un municipio en la Prefectura de Ibaraki, Japón. La población en 2005 es 29.969 habitantes.
Kasama es reconocida por su cerámica, kasama-yaki (笠間焼き). It is reddish-brown in color, with a black glaze. Up until recently, kasama-yaki was used to make things of daily use, like large pots (tsubo, 壺). Though this style was well known, it is now only made by a few kilns. Modern kasama-yaki is made in almost any style and color, from dinner ware and utensils, to works of art. It is noted for its fine quality, and thus Kasama is one of the most important artistic centers in the Kantō region. Kasama's pottery has a long history, which is connected with that of nearby Mashiko. Many people come from all over Japan and the world to study pottery with Kasama's masters.
