Hasami-cho, Nagasaki Prefecture, is a pottery production area. Since around 1580, Hasami-cho has become a major pottery production area due to the production of pottery stone. Hasami-yaki boasts a 16% share of the national market share in terms of daily tableware shipments, but until around 2000, the area was home to many kilns that produced Arita-yaki.
When the area saw no future in traditional manufacturing due to social circumstances in a division of labor production area, Nishikai Toki Co., Ltd., which supported manufacturing by standing between each workshop and people's lives, took the lead in starting Hasami-yaki.
Hasami-yaki has recently been attracting a lot of attention in the media, and is often seen in stylish tableware, but behind this modern tableware lies a history of over 400 years, and the techniques used to produce tableware, arts and crafts, etc. Currently, Hasami ware is centered on the beauty of white porcelain and delicate blue and white painting with gosu (indigo blue). However, inside the storehouse, Arita ware has been improved in technology and made in response to various requests, so it is a place where you can get a glimpse of the diversity of techniques and long history of the production area.
Enjoy the change of seasons
Two new products have been added to the lineup: "Year plates" that will brighten up your living space, and adorable "small plates" with a theme of the four seasons. Illustrator Toshiyuki Fukuda's specially drawn illustrations are beautifully expressed in "gosu," the traditional color of Hasami ware. Although it is painted in shades of blue, it has depth and is attractive to look at.
The edge of the vessel is applied with a technique called "edge rust." Finishing with a glaze containing iron gives it a tasteful texture that slightly bleeds. It has a nostalgic atmosphere and goes well with Fukuda's unique worldview. It will also be delivered in a gift box with the logo embossed on it, so it is also recommended as a gift. Please choose it as a gift for birthdays and important anniversaries.
◇Year Plate
The year plate with the year "2025" shining elegantly on an octagonal plate. It is an item that we would like you to choose as a commemoration of this year.
In Europe, there is a culture of decorating year plates, but in fact, there are few places in Japan that make year plates. This piece was created with the desire to bring such a culture to Japan. The design features three birds in the center and a snake, which is the zodiac sign for 2025, on the raised rim. The numbers "2025" have a wonderful shine like antique casting. Of course, you can use it as tableware, but you can also enjoy it as interior decoration by standing it up on a stand or hanging it on the wall with a string through the hole in the high base.
◇Four Seasons Set
Four types of designs drawn to expand the image of the four seasons. The world of Toshiyuki Fukuda, where animals and plants are one, unfolds. The small plate is packed with delicate expressions that make use of the shades of blue, making it a fun plate to just look at.
The size is convenient for holding soy sauce for sashimi, condiments, pickles, jam for bread, etc. It is also cute to put a little snack on it. Of course, it is a small plate that looks great as a decoration.

We want to encounter things that we can continue to use with love for a long time and share the joy of meeting them.
ZUTTO is a select store that was started with this in mind. In the course of introducing a variety of "things," including things from Japan, things from around the world, things made by hand, things that focus on materials, and things that require technology, we sometimes find ourselves thinking, "I wish there were more of this kind of thing." We introduce original items made with a focus on the "more" part as the ZUTTO brand.
Our items range from clothing and fashion accessories to bags and kitchen tools, but what they all have in common is that they are made from materials and ingenuity that will make you want to use them for a long time. Materials that age and deepen over time make you look forward to the years to come, and semi-custom-made items that suit your tastes are easy to use and you want to keep them with you for a long time. We are a brand that supports "long-lasting use" from every aspect, with a system in place that allows for repairs and alterations whenever possible.
