He was born in Kyoto and began his apprenticeship at the age of twelve under the tutelage of a Japanese-style painter named Kou Fuyou, who had a strong influence on him from an early age. He eventually travelled to Osaka and became a student of Kimura Kenkadou, where he was given the title of "Koi Fuyou."

After working for a number of years with the Japanese-style painter, he decided to take up pottery as a career in 1900. After completing his studies, he established a studio and started selling his pottery at a local tea shop.

From there, he continued to develop his skills and was soon able to sell his wares all over Japan. He was also an active participant in the development of a traditional kiln-building technique called Noborigama. He received several awards for his work, including the Encouragement Award in the Japan Traditional Kogei Exhibition in 1977 and the Prime Minister's Prize at the First Western Japan Ceramic Exhibition in 1981.

His works include many pieces of Raku ware, incense burners, tea bowls and shishi statues, and his kanji-style chawans are very distinctive. He was particularly fond of raku chawan with a square shape between the rim and the hip, a style that he drew inspiration from the Rikyu-style tea bowls of his father Chojiro and was able to reproduce their beauty in his own way.

He worked in a variety of styles and was highly regarded for his Raku wares and tea bowls, which were made in a range of shapes and designs. He also specialized in making copies of Hagi, Karatsu and Shino wares.
