The TOHKA Katakuchi “Kakusen” S is a wooden sake pitcher that pairs a graceful silhouette with everyday practicality. Its form draws inspiration from the elegant lines of a crane and the flowing waters of Kakusenkei Gorge, a scenic landmark in Yamanaka Onsen.
Crafted from mizume wood, the Plain finish brings the natural grain into focus. The katakuchi’s pouring spout makes it a practical companion for serving sake, while its sculptural shape adds a quiet presence to the table. With a 150 ml capacity, it is suited to a small serving to enjoy alone or share with a guest.
