A ceramic artist based in Tajimi City, Gifu Prefecture, who creates pottery with the desire for it to be used frequently in daily life and to be "always there."
The contrasting beauty of pure white and bronze-colored pottery is striking. The white pottery is crafted with the intention of "matching any dish," and features a simple yet elegant design that enhances the food. The bronze plates, on the other hand, were born from a request at a neighborhood izakaya, and their appealing, rustic color is perfect for everyday use.
Common to both series is the warm desire for the pottery to "accompany the user's daily life and be used freely and frequently." These pieces truly shine when used at the daily dining table, harmonizing with any dish and growing more beloved with every use.

About this Work
Though small at around 7 cm in diameter, this cutlery rest radiates presence with the deep luster of bronze. The metallic sheen within its simple, rounded form shifts with the angle of the light, adding a touch of sophisticated elegance to your table.
Perfect not only as a chopstick rest but also for Western cutlery like forks and spoons, it beautifully unifies a fusion of Japanese and Western styles. It's also appealing for its ability to enhance your dishes while conveying an impression of thoughtful hospitality down to the last detail.
Just by incorporating it into your daily dining table, this small yet essential supporting actor elevates the space and creates a sense of specialness. It's a refined item that we also recommend as a gift or for use as a set.
※As each piece is handmade, there may be slight individual differences.
