These iron kettles are made with techniques of "Usuniku-brei"; beautiful thin casting surfaces, which are a key feature of Yamagata casting. This lineup has a beautiful brown color, lacquer finish and unique shape. The kettle has a thin, beautifully crafted surface that combines traditional craftsmanship with a modern lifestyle. The hand painted finish is uncalcined at 800 degrees and the stainless steel handle gives a modern touch. 

Casting iron pots are known for keeping tea warm for a long time and to add a distinct flavor loved by tea connoisseurs! Furthermore, cast iron products may contribute to your immunity system and naturally enhance your iron intake.

  • Japan has a rich culture of casting crafts. Yamagata (North of Japan) casting is now recognized as one of the best in Japan. Whereas other type of castings are characterized as hard and masculine, Yamagata casting is appreciated for being ‘Usuniku-birei’’ – thin and beautiful. The production process is extensive and complicated. It requires a lot of knowledge and craftmanship, and while the appreciation for cast iron products is rising, the number of skilled artisans is decreasing every year. 

    ‘Chushin Kobo’ was established in 1977, with the objective to revitalize the casting industry through smart, modern designs. The youngest generation, Mr. Masuda, is both a craftsman and a designer.  His mission is to ‘recreate objects retaining the beauty of traditional Japanese cast iron but stylishly adapted to fit contemporary life-style’. 

    Casting iron pots are known for keeping tea warm for a long time. Furthermore, cast iron products may contribute to your immunity system and naturally enhance your iron intake. Proper care of your teapot will make it last for generations! 

    Instructions and cautions: 

    - Before use, fill with boiling water to rinse and warm your pot.
    - Allow teapot to cool completely after each use before cleaning.
    - IF using detergent, use a ph.-balanced one. 
    - Avoid contact with salt and oils, and always air dry the teapot after use to avoid rust*. (only replace the lid once the pot is dry)  
    - NO dishwasher.
    - NO open fire/stove. Candle warmers are OK.  
    - A tea stand is recommended to protect your table top/counter.  
    - If you do not use the pot for a while, make sure it's kept completely dry to avoid rust*. 
    * In the unlikely event of rust, the pot can still be used. Rust from the teapot is non-toxic and perfectly safe. In fact, many tea connoisseurs actually prefer the taste of tea from a rusted iron teapot! If the rust bothers you, clean the rusted area with a soft brush, then fill the pot with used tea leaves and boiling water. Allow to sit for 20 minutes, discard and rinse.

    200×190×180mm

  • Morihan_Old_Building

    Real Japanese Nori by a specialist with 120 years history!


    Morihan (1901) has been harvesting and producing high quality nori for 120 years and knows exactly how to create delicious, crisp, flavorful dried seaweed. Morihan has a unique production method to ensure the best quality for their nori.

    Many contemporary producers use a hot air fan, which will quickly spread air and speed up the drying process, but Morihan works according to traditional methods, using an electric heating roaster with 5 different shelves: The nori slowly, and carefully dried and moved down a shelve after careful inspection every half-day. The process takes 2,5 days. As the seaweed is dried very gradually, the original flavor and strong umami remain and come through perfectly in the final nori sheets.
