Overview
Iyo Stonework is a regional stonework tradition associated with Iyo Province, corresponding largely to present-day Ehime Prefecture. The craft developed through the sustained activity of local workshops supplying architectural, memorial, and religious stone to coastal and inland communities. Its identity is defined by continuity of place-based production and the integration of stoneworking into everyday, ritual, and commemorative landscapes.
