Dynamic designs typical of Okinawa Soba makai makes cooking fun just by thinking about what to serve. The gosu and brown-colored patterns stand out against the slightly creamy white background, and just looking at it will make you feel energetic. The two lines drawn in the relaxed arabesque tighten the expression of the pottery. Although Yachimun has a strong image of being heavy, Toshin Kiln is characterized by not being too heavy or thick. The height of the base and the rise of the edges are exquisite, and it fits naturally in your hand. This may be the result of a history of creating everyday pottery that is close to the people who use it. For noodles and rice bowls "Makai" means bowl in the Okinawan language. As the name soba makai suggests, it is perfect for serving noodles. Add fresh soy sauce to the Sanuki udon noodles, and squeeze out green onions, ginger, tenkasu, sesame seeds, and sudachi! The process of coming up with a menu like, "I want to use this pot, so let's make noodles" seems to be fun. Hearty rice dishes such as tempura bowls and sauced katsudon bowls, as well as salads with lots of radish, mizuna, and bonito flakes, go well together. Stacking storage is also OK! It's also a good idea to have one for your family and guests.

About the style and atmosphere Toshin Kiln strives to create new products while preserving tradition. When setting the fire in the kiln, we offer a prayer: "Imamarashi Misore" (please be born). Tableware were born with the blessings of Okinawa's nature and the passion of their creators. Please raise them with love.
