Yamagen Toen (CROCK)

Maker / Yamagen Toen　Material / Ceramic clay　Region / Tokoname City, Aichi Prefecture

Yamagen Toen, located in Tokoname City, Aichi Prefecture, operates under the concept of "updating tradition." They inherit the spirit of potters who have responded to the demands of their times, and they develop and manufacture Tokoname ware suited for modern life.
In Tokoname, a wide range of products are made, from daily necessities like teapots and tableware to building materials like ceramic pipes, tiles, and sanitary ware. Due to their excellent durability, large jars and pots were also once produced there.

Yamagen Toen continues to create items that are both rooted in traditional wisdom and rich, meticulous technical skill, focusing on materials and crafting tools for use in daily life, pieces that are relevant to contemporary living and truly accompany our lives.

They collaborated with us on the production of the heat-resistant plate "marais," and also provided us with CROCK, "a lidded, glazed pot for storing miso, pickled plums, and nuka-zuke (fermented rice bran pickles)," and SUYAKI CROCK, "a ceramic container that is robust yet highly absorbent, ideal for salt and other items that dislike moisture."
