Monohara Ceramic Collection by House Industries. In 2012 House Industries collaborated with Hasami on a collection steeped in kiln-fired Kelvins and centuries of tradition. What now marks their 2nd collaboration with the family-owned Japanese ceramic maker, House has unveiled their Monohara collection. The term – a form of Japanese ceramic industry jargon – literally means “the trash pit next to the kiln” and refers to a pit of defects or otherwise imperfect ceramics that have been discarded.
