Earthenware pot for one person

Iga Clay Pot No. 6 is a small clay pot perfect for people living alone or when you want to make a small amount of hot pot dishes such as porridge or tofu.

Large clay pots for 3-4 people are convenient, but small clay pots have a different appeal. They are easy to use and will greatly expand the range of dishes you can make, adding color to your diet. This cooking utensil is useful for both health management and saving time on housework, and is also great for lunch for one person or a late-night snack. You can easily make healthy soups and hot pot dishes with leftovers in the refrigerator, and you can serve them directly on the table, so you can reduce the amount of dishes to wash. In addition to killing two birds with one stone, the Iga Clay Pot No. 6 is also attractive for its beautiful appearance, which makes you want to keep it in a visible place in the kitchen.

Iga ware, for a delicious finish

TOJIKITONYA's Iga clay pot No. 6 is manufactured in Iga, Mie Prefecture, a pottery production area. The clay from the ancient Lake Biwa layer, which is a geological layer in Iga, is highly fire-resistant and has been known as a clay suitable for heat-resistant pottery. It is characterized by its excellent heat storage and heat retention, and its rough texture. In addition, Iga clay has far-infrared effects, which are said to bring out the flavor of ingredients and make dishes mellow.

Available in black, which shines with a glossy black color, and white, which allows you to feel the texture of the ingredients as they are. Just the different colors create a different atmosphere. It comes in a box, so it is also recommended as a gift for celebrations such as weddings.

In addition to natural ingredients, the pottery does not use any special fire-resistant ingredients, so it is prone to crazing (cracks in the surface) even with everyday use. Even if crazing occurs, it does not interfere with use, so you can enjoy experiencing the texture that changes the more you use it.

Connecting Tradition

While the number of traditional techniques and craftsmen is rapidly decreasing even in pottery production areas, TOJIKITONYA has a desire to inherit the excellent techniques and products of the ceramics industry that have walked alongside the history of Japanese food culture. Based in the Tokai region, where many ceramics are produced, the company creates new ceramic products together with local manufacturers and designers.

The more you use TOJIKITONYA's Iga Clay Pot No. 6, you will feel closer to the materials and place of origin. Make these timeless, long-loved Japanese products a part of your daily life.
