Kido-san hikes into the countryside of Kagoshima to dig the clay used in this handcrafted bowl. To cement the connection to the land, Kido-san stamps into the back of the plate the latitude & longitude of where he harvests the clay. The cracked, spotted appearance of this rose-hued piece attests to its handmade nature.

Kido-san crafts this bowl using volcanic ash from Sakurajima, an active volcano sitting in the middle of Kagoshima Bay. This give the mottled surface a mesmerizing iridescence. It looks stunning on a table...either alone or holding fruits, vegetables or other items.

A suribachi (mortar) and the accompanying surikogi (pestle) are must have items in any Japanese kitchen. They are indispensible when grinding sesame seeds or spices - allowing you to achieve just the right consistency. We fell in love with this version when we first saw it at the Wadaman shop in Osaka. We find the rough shape and simple, hand-painted glaze wonderful. And the pouring spout is so handy when making a dressing.
Wadaman Co., Ltd. is located in Osaka, Japan and has been a sesame manufacturer for more than 130 years. The fourth generation owner, Etsuji Wada, has been personally roasting the seeds for over 40 years. Known as the best roaster in Japan, his skills produce sesame seeds with a delicate & nuanced flavor like none other.
