Kikka bowl (center) by Suzuki Fumie, a potter who makes pottery in Tokoname, Aichi Prefecture. It has a slightly rough texture reminiscent of earthiness and a warm feel. It is useful for serving side dishes and other dishes. It can also be used as a dessert plate.

Add color to your dining table

Arranging flower-shaped dishes on your dining table is sure to create a fun dining experience. It will add a vibrant touch to your dining table by serving food on it. Kikka pots are available in three sizes: large, medium and small.

Enhances the food

Kikka pots are vessels that have a warm, handmade feel. The rough shape is made using a tatara mill and then each petal is carved one by one to create soft lines. The simple, flower-shaped Kohiki tableware enhances the flavor of your food.

Expressive Kohiki Pottery

The iron dots on the surface and the small cracks in the stone give it a rich look. It also goes well with the creamy powder color that is unique to Suzuki Fumie. The burnt red soil peeking out from underneath the pottery is also an attractive feature.

When the vessel gets wet, the moisture soaks in and grey spots appear around the edges of the stone and pinholes. We hope you will enjoy this as part of the charm of Kohiki and help develop your vessel. The spots will disappear as they dry.
[Spots that appear around the edges of the stone and around pinholes. It is said that tea masters enjoyed these changes.]

If you are concerned about stains, soak the product thoroughly in water before using it for the first time. The grey spots will disappear once the fabric is fully absorbed.
[If you soak the vessel in water for a long time, the water will soak into the entire vessel and there will be no spots.]

To prevent stains, dip the container in water each time before use to allow it to absorb water thoroughly and then wipe it down before use.

However, stains will appear if you use it for a long time. This is also part of the charm of Kohiki, so please enjoy the changes that occur over time as the pottery develops.
