Even after the abolition of the han system, it is the only kiln permitted to use the name "Nabeshima Oniwayaki" and the Nabeshima clan's family crest, the "Goyo-mon" (ginkgo leaf crest). In particular, the 5th Kohshun Ichikawa, a ceramic artist and kiln owner, has upheld traditional techniques and meticulous painting, continuing to create exquisite works such as "Iro-Nabeshima" entirely by hand.
