ReIRABO is a reinterpretation of “irabo” glaze, an ancient glazing method often still found in traditional pottery such as Japanese matcha bowls or handworks by skilled potters. The uneven texture of glaze is the beauty of irabo, and it is celebrated as a unique character making every piece one of a kind. This technique is usually challenging to stabilize and handle for use in microwave ovens and dishwashers, however, after repeated testing, Yumiko Iihoshi has adapted her own original irabo glaze and developed a selection of modern tableware that pushes the boundaries between a handmade product and machine-produced. Every shape and size are well designed and considered for easy-to-use and fun to serve Japanese foods and many other dishes for your own dining set-ups.

A small and stylish soba choco. The size is also good for sake, Japanese tea, and Chinese tea.

The ReIRABO collection offers cups, plates and bowls in the same colour options. Ideally enjoyed using your own mix and match style.

Because each piece is finished by hand, there may be slight variations and unevenness in colour. These are not considered defects, but added value. Please enjoy discovering the individual expressions found on each item.
