"This cup shows a glimpse of gentleness. The modest form and coloring of the cup are reflected in the iron powder. The more you use it, the deeper it becomes, and it will become something you will never want to part with. The size of this cup is suitable for a teacup.

Atsushi Shimomura

Born in Kanagawa in 1985. After working in web design, studied under Mr. Taki Nakazato of Karatsu Ryuta Kiln. Now, engaged in pottery making in Sagamihara City, Kanagawa. He creates modern and warm pottery that blends the charming expression of the clay with gentle forms." Akihiro Woodworks A woodworker based in Kagoshima, Japan. His wide-ranging activities include custom-made furniture, original products, and store and home interiors. The drying period of the wood used for materials varies depending on the thickness and species, but it takes 3 to 5 years until it's dry enough for carving. Although nowadays it's possible to obtain high-quality timber from all over the world, we create our products by learning about the cycles of forests and timber around the neighborhood, and pursuing shapes that suit the character of the timber we use. Artist : Jin Akihiro From straight lines to curves, from curves to surfaces, his powerful three-dimensional construction draws the user into the work. He is an alien who considers the development of original products as an"installation work". The market is like a canvas on which he dances wildly. “If I make good products, more people will use them, and to carry on this cycle is one thing we can do for a better future. We are on a journey to find a standard of good quality, for ourselves and for you.”

Note: Each piece is hand work by the artist, even the same piece will have a slightly different expression.
