Notice

The surface is coated with an antirust oxide layer using the traditional technique called kama-yaki (high temperature baking treatment), but as it is cast iron, rust may occur due to moisture and humidity. Since all items are handmade, shape, color and size may vary from the photo.

DESCRIPTION

We take pleasure in presenting a distinctive Tetsubin, distinct from those fashioned by Oitomi. This particular Tetsubin has been meticulously crafted by Shingo Kikuchi (菊池真吾), a seasoned traditional craftsman hailing from Shokado. His workshop is situated in Oshu City, Iwate Prefecture, coinciding with our own locale.

The designation of "traditional craftsman" bears official recognition from the Japanese government.

The handle of the lid is adorned with charming chrysanthemum flowers. On both sides of the iron kettle, wild chrysanthemums are delicately depicted, vividly capturing the scene of chrysanthemums blooming at one's feet under a clear sky. The admiration that everyone has felt at some point, not limited to chrysanthemums, is evident, shining through the artist's sensibility.

The handle (hilt) is a valuable hand-forged creation. Its distinctive feature lies in the graceful curve, reminiscent of the feathered robe of a celestial maiden from ancient tales. This design not only exudes elegance but also excels in practicality, offering a comfortable grip when held.

Internally, a technique called kama-yaki has been employed to coat the surface with an oxidized film, eschewing the application of any paint.

*Kindly note that the handmade nature of each item may result in slight variations between the actual product and the photographs.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

When using induction heating, use in the low to medium heat range.
Do not wash with detergent.
Do not wash using a sponge or scrubber.
Wipe off the excess water around the lid and other parts well, as discoloration and rusting can easily occur.
Please note that cooking near this pot may result in oil stains and discoloration due to oil splashes.
If the gas flame reaches the body of the pot, the part is likely to discolor, so be careful not to increase the heat too much.

To make tea and coffee great

The water boiled in Nambu iron kettle tastes mellow and sweet even when drunk straight.

This is due to the effect of iron leaching into the hot water, but in order for the iron to leach out, the inside cannot be enameled or otherwise treated, and rust is liable to occur.

Nambu ironware is baked using the traditional technique called kama-yaki to produce an oxide layer on the surface. It leads to "rust resistance" and "water quality improvement" and makes tea and coffee taste better.
