From Refrigerator to Table: Ishinomaki Tabletop Pot

We've created Ishinomaki tabletop pots that add a touch of handcrafted beauty to your dining table. Fill them with pickled plums or other preserved foods and store them in the refrigerator—then simply bring them directly to the table when needed, eliminating the need for additional serving dishes. When the meal is finished, return any leftovers straight to the refrigerator.

With a capacity of approximately 150ml, they're perfectly sized for containing pickles or pickled plums.

Handling Precautions

Microwave safe.

[Before use]
Be sure to wash with water or lukewarm water.

[When using]
Avoid sudden heating or cooling as it is sensitive to rapid temperature changes. This may cause damage.

[After use]
Dishwasher safe, but hand washing is recommended for longevity. Overloading may cause damage, so please use with care.
Do not scrub hard with abrasive detergents or metal scourers, as this may cause scratches. Wash with a soft sponge.
Avoid soaking. After washing, wipe with a soft, dry cloth, dry thoroughly, and store in a well-ventilated place.

[Notes]
Be careful of chipping or cracking due to strong impacts.
For safety, stop using the product if it becomes cracked.
Crazing (fine cracks on the surface) may appear over time with use, but this does not affect usability.
Please enjoy it as part of the product's character. As each item is finished by hand, there may be individual differences in colour and shape.

Created with Minowada Kiln in Ishinomaki, Miyagi Prefecture

These pots were made in collaboration with Minowada Kiln, which creates everyday vessels from local materials such as clay, Inai stone, rice husk ash, and scallop shells, working from a former primary school building converted into a pottery in Ishinomaki, Miyagi Prefecture. The design evokes the pottery traditions of the Tohoku region while creating a presence that harmonizes with contemporary dining tables.

The Natural Variations Created Through Wheel Throwing

Each pot is individually thrown on the potter's wheel by artisans. The 'Wind Pattern Green' design, inspired by the winds and waves of Ishinomaki, features hand-drawn ripple patterns, making each piece unique. The 'Blue' glaze, commonly known as Ishinomaki Blue, uses a glaze that naturally creates variations, resulting in colour differences between individual pieces. Please enjoy the natural variations in colour that emerge from using natural materials.

Wide-Mouthed Design for Easy Handling

The wide-mouthed, stable design allows easy visibility and access to the contents while also making cleaning simple—a delightful feature. These pots are perfectly sized for storing rice accompaniments such as pickled plums, other pickles, or chirimen-zansho (sweet pepper seasoned with young sardines).
