Based in the heart of Hokkaido’s lush forests, Manabu Kachi dedicates his life to the dialogue between fire and earth.

"The most important thing for pottery is to be fired hard," Kachi-san says. True to his conviction, his **Utsuwa** are robustly fired in a wood-burning kiln, offering a reliable and grounded presence for daily life.

This piece captivates the senses from the moment it is held, conveying the raw power of the soil through its form, while the generous margin of the surface gracefully enhances the presence of the cuisine. Within its primitive silhouette, reminiscent of the vast northern wilderness, a subtle modern sensibility breathes—a testament to Kachi-san's exceptional intuition. This generous size is perfectly suited for presenting main meat or fish dishes, or for arranging a thoughtful assortment of side dishes on a single plate.

The rustic yet potent textures born from the wood-firing process embody the time, energy, and unwavering devotion he pours into his craft.

We invite you to experience the joy of "dressing" your moments with the deep, rugged beauty unique to Manabu Kachi.

* As each piece is crafted by hand, you may notice subtle variations in size, form, glaze, and hue. Please embrace these unique characteristics, as the piece you welcome into your home will have its own individual expression, distinct from the photograph
