SUYAKI from Yamagen Touen, Close at Hand
The SUYAKI SPOON is a special teaspoon made from the same material as the SUYAKI CROCK.
It is also produced by Yamagen Touen, a Tokoname ware pottery located on the Chita Peninsula in Aichi Prefecture, famous for its production of kyusu teapots and heat-resistant tableware.The spoon's texture is unique and endearing, with a plump shape that makes you feel attached to it.

SUYAKI CROCK
The dedicated SUYAKI CROCK is made by blending two types of clay with different properties. By firing it without applying glaze, its water absorption is enhanced, which prevents the humidity changes that cause salt to clump and keeps the salt free-flowing.
External inspection results show that the salt in the container dries about four times more effectively compared to glazed ceramic containers, so you can use it with peace of mind, knowing its effectiveness has been proven.
Furthermore, by using clay that fires well even at low temperatures, the SUYAKI CROCK overcomes the disadvantage that low-temperature firing usually makes ceramics brittle and prone to chipping or cracking, making them difficult to handle.
A simple, elegant presence with a sense of spaciousness
Similar to other crocks, I use different SUYAKI CROCK colors to separate various types of salt, lining them up a little distance from the stove.
Fine natural sea salt for when I want to consume minerals, coarse salt for salads and meat, and Guerande salt for baking – salt is used frequently in cooking and is something I want to be particular about.
The SUYAKI CROCK keeps salt in good condition and stores it stylishly, making time in the kitchen more enjoyable, and it's delightful to see it become a familiar tool in daily life.
Unlike other crocks, the SUYAKI CROCK comes in three soft, subdued tones. Combined with the unique texture of unglazed pottery, its elegant appearance with a sense of spaciousness transforms the kitchen into a cool and light space.
