'''Setoguro glazing''' is a ceramic glazing technique that produces deep black surfaces using iron-rich glazes fired at high temperatures. The glaze is historically associated with ceramics produced in the Mino region during the late 16th century.

The term ''Setoguro'' (Japanese: 瀬戸黒) means "black Seto" and refers to stoneware vessels covered with glossy black glazes derived from iron-based glaze compositions. The glaze is typically applied to the entire surface of a vessel and fired at high temperatures.

During firing the iron content of the glaze produces a dark, lustrous surface. Traditional firing methods often involve removing the vessel from the kiln while it is still hot and allowing it to cool rapidly, which can enhance the depth and uniformity of the black color.

Setoguro glazes were developed in the kilns of the Mino region during the Momoyama period and became particularly associated with ceramics used in the tea ceremony. The bold black surfaces were appreciated for their contrast with tea and for their strong visual presence.

Setoguro is considered one of the important glaze styles within the broader tradition of [[Mino ware]].
