Strong Color Shade Variations
Each piece has strong individual color shade variations. Affected by glazes and natural firing conditions such as changes in temperature, humidity and other climate elements and also how to receive the fire in the kiln chamber, each piece has own expression. It is really difficult to make the completed ware exactly same in color by firing and glazing even when the same materials are used. 100 pieces show 100 kinds of expressions, as it were.
Strong Color Irregularities
There are strong color irregularities of applying a glaze or slip, which are different from part to part in a piece of ware. For example, some parts are glazed thinly or thickly depending on the shape of the ware. That leads to part-to-part differences in appearance of the clay in a piece of ware.
Glaze or Slip Drips
The glaze or slip may look like dripping. There is unevenness of a glaze or slip when they are applied to ware by hand. There also appear glaze drips or slip drips, which are caused by the glaze or slip flows during firing.
Rough Clay
The surface may be rough due to the use of rough or coarse clay.
Pinholes
Pinholes may be seen clearly on the surface. Pottery (earthenware) is mainly made from earth, and green ware contains a lot of air while biscuit firing. While glazed firing, this air inside the biscuit ware becomes air bubbles, which remain and look like small holes on the surface of the glazed part. Those small holes are called pinholes.
Crazing (Chaps)
Crazing (having chaps) may appear clearly on the glazed part. The “direct” crazing means having chaps originally. The “aging” crazing means having chaps over time as you use the tableware item. There is a difference between the shrinkage rate of the glaze and that of the clay, so crazing occurs. Note that those cracks do not come from the damage of tableware items. They might appear just before use, but it is no problem in terms of use. They appear on the surface of pottery (earthenware) and semi-porcelain.
Iron in Powder
Iron in powder may be seen clearly on the surface. Pottery (earthenware) is made from earth, which contains iron. After firing green ware, iron appears on the surface in the form of black dots. Red or black earthen clay contains much more iron, and as a result, not a little iron in powder may appear on the surface of tableware items made from this type of clay.
Microwave Safe
A microwave oven heats or cooks food very quickly using short electromagnetic waves, namely, microwaves. In most cases, the microwaves heat the water content of the food. However, in some cases, the microwaves concentrate on the carbonized (burnt) parts of the food, causing the temperature to rise higher than the other parts. For example, the microwaves concentrated on the carbonized (burnt) parts of stir-fried vegetables can create a large temperature difference in /on the tableware item, which may cause breakage. In addition to water content, oil content is also heated. The oil has a higher boiling point than the water, so it heats up at a higher temperature, creating a very large temperature difference between the parts that contain oil and the parts that do not, which can cause breakage.
・Never soak hot tableware in water or place it on the cold kitchen counter. Avoid rapidly heating frozen foods or putting [the cold tableware just taken out of the refrigerator] in the microwave. A rapid change in temperature will lead to “crazing” (chaps) or breakage.
※The products with gold or silver paintings, or applied with particular glazes are not microwave safe. We put a “Do Not Microwave” sticker on those items, so please confirm it.
※Accessories etc., made of other materials are excluded from microwave safe items.
Not Oven Safe
Dishwasher Safe
As for the products without the "Not Dishwasher Safe" stickers, please make sure to use them keeping the below matters in mind.
※If tableware items collide each other in the dishwasher, they will get broken.
※Most ceramic items absorb water. Even if the surface looks dry, there may still be some water in the tableware, which may cause your tableware to get moldy or smelly. So, please take it out of the dishwasher immediately after use, and dry thoroughly in a place where it can be exposed to the outside air.

Jupiter 150 plate Image
The article featuring the Jupiter 150 plate
ジュピター270プレートに新たなサイズ展開が登場します。
φ245、φ205、φ150の3サイズが加わりました。
ジュピターの形状はフラットな盛面と丸みのある小さな立ち上がりが特徴。
重なりもよく、家族分揃えてもコンパクトに収納できます。
何よりも魅力なのは素材。
小石が入った赤荒土を使用しています。
焼成することで石が表面にはじけ出ていたり、ボコボコとした表情が特徴です。
山から採取した土を多少調整するものの、ほぼそのままの土を使用します。
そのため採取する場所によって、石の荒さや、土の表情が変わります。
また、鉄分を多く含んだ土に施釉することで焦げ感や鉄粉など力強い表情が料理を引き立ててくれます。
色展開はスノー、サンド、チャコールの3色。
スノーは滑らかな白釉の中に大きく大胆に散らばった鉄粉が星屑のように広がり、
滑らかさと荒々しさが混在した表情です。
サンドは名前の通り、ザラザラした砂や土壌のような質感。瑞々しい野菜やフレッシュな魚や肉の食材がより引き立ちます。
チャコールは漆黒ですが、土から現れる鉄粉や石目が控えめに現れ、銀河のような奥行きを感じます。
φ245は主菜、パスタ、ステーキなどに、
Φ205はトーストやデザートプレートとして、
Φ150はパン皿、取り皿など。場所も取らず来客用として多めにあっても重宝します。
裏側は施釉をかける時に生じるダレやムラがはっきりと現れます。
釉薬が流れたあとが大胆に入り、釉薬の濃淡差によって焦げ感が生まれダイナミックな表情になります。
土の力強い表情が魅力なジュピター。
瑞瑞しいサラダや、果物、ジューシーなお肉や魚、クリーミーでツヤツヤしたデザートなど。
シズル感のある料理を盛り付けるとお互いが引き立てあうのでオススメです。
この料理にはこのプレートを合わせるといつもよりさらに美味しく見える!
みたいな相性のいい料理をいろいろ試してみるのも楽しいですね。
