Born the son of 3rd generation Miura Jozan, he grew up within the ceramics industry before moving to Tokyo to study painting in order to improve his technique. After returning to his hometown, he founded the Kodaira kiln, and while showing respect to the tradition of Mumyoi-ware, he set out to create a new style. His own son Miura Koheiji became a living national treasure.
