Cutlery “minato”

Tsubame city craftsmen work with passion

“Artisan” products are made in Tsubame City, a town famous nationwide for craftsmanship.

Its history dates back to the Edo period, and it is still a town where many craftsmen live. We are good at stainless steel processing technology centered on metal tableware, and the high level of our technology is recognized around the world. What is particularly striking is the “precision of manufacturing” and above all, the “good feel”.

“Made in Tsubame” products have the beauty of a work of art, but also contain the craftsman’s desire to “use them every day.”

Only one color in the world created by craftsmen

Orii, a momentum factory located in Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture, is in charge of coloring. This is a workshop that has been involved in the coloring of Buddhist altar fittings and bronze statues since ancient times.

In recent years, he has taken on the challenge of “coloring” in various genres by making use of his solid technical skills. We handle everything from wall and interior decorations for luxury hotels to tables, plates, and various small items.

Their coloring is “all manual work”. A special solution is applied to control the flame to express “the only color in the world”.

Beautiful tea utensils woven with traditional techniques

The products handled by “artisan” are “Tsubame’s metal processing” x “Takaoka’s coloring”. By combining the traditional techniques of the two regions, we will further refine the charm and provide it.

It is a product that is sure to become a favorite. You will be fascinated by the sophisticated shape and deep colors.

One of the pleasures is that the color changes as you use it. You can choose from three colors: blue, copper red, and antique silver.

It has a simple design that exudes elegance and creates a modern Japanese atmosphere. We have prepared a 5-piece set of dessert knives, dessert spoons, dessert forks, teaspoons, cake forks, and butter knives.
