'''Oribe glazing''' is a ceramic glazing technique characterized by vivid green copper glazes often combined with asymmetrical designs and contrasting glaze surfaces. The style developed in Japan during the late 16th and early 17th centuries and is closely associated with ceramics from the Mino region.

Oribe glazes typically contain copper oxide, which produces bright green colors when fired under appropriate conditions. The glaze is often applied to only part of a vessel, leaving other areas unglazed or covered with contrasting glazes. This approach creates dynamic visual compositions that emphasize asymmetry and variation.

Many Oribe ceramics also feature painted decoration using iron pigments beneath the glaze. These designs may include geometric patterns, stylized plants, or abstract motifs that interact with the green glazed areas.

The development of Oribe ware is often associated with aesthetic ideas related to the tea ceremony and with the cultural influence of tea master [[Furuta Oribe]], after whom the style is named. The ceramics reflect a taste for bold design, irregular forms, and expressive surface decoration.

Oribe glazing appears primarily in ceramics associated with [[Mino ware]] and related traditions.
