Ohi Chozaemon IX (1901-1986)
After graduating from Ishikawa Technical School, he devoted himself to the family business, and he was chosen for a prize for the first time in the Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce Kogei Exhibition in 1920. In 1925, he inherited the family estate and succeeded the name as the ninth generation Ohi Chozaemon. He earnestly studied traditional pottery techniques, and received high praise at his private exhibition, "Twelve Months Tea Bowl Exhibition," in 1936. In 1940, he was bestowed the Chozaemon sign from Konoe Fumimaro, and he was acknowledged as a Preserver of Kogei Techniques in 1942. From 1958, he continued to display his works and be chosen for prizes in the Japan Traditional Kogei Exhibitions.
Starting with makugusuri glaze black tea bowls and ameyu glaze tea bowls, he specialized in producing tea pottery. He contributed greatly to the establishment of Ohi ware from the Showa period onward, and was known as an especially skilled craftsman, even among the Chozaemon line.
