Born in Ishikawa as the eldest son of Takegoshi Taizan III (1919-1984), who was a master of Kutani ware, Takegoshi Jun inherited and continued the traditional techniques of his family. He masterfully paints his hand formed vessels with birds and flowers in brilliant colors, typical of ko-Kutani.
He graduated from Kanazawa College of Art in 1972, majoring in Japanese traditional painting. After working as the head of the ceramics design department at a vocational training school and traveling abroad, he became a potter in 1973. He studied under his father Taizan and Kitade Fujio. He is a member of Nitten and has been awarded the Honorable Mention at the Japan New Craft Exhibition. He received the highest award and commission from the Prefectural Contemporary Art Exhibition. He is director of the Prefectural Ceramic Association. -
