Realistic, yet endearing.
Enjoy a quiet moment with your favorite cup.

Deep in the satoyama of Nantan, Kyoto, ceramic artist Takanobu Sawada creates pottery surrounded by rich natural scenery.

His works feature lifelike yet warm and gentle depictions of animals, brought to life through careful handcrafting.

Each mug is meticulously shaped and trimmed to ensure a comfortable fit in the hand and ease of use.

The soft, milky-white kohiki glaze enhances the natural warmth and character unique to ceramic wares.

Hand-carved animal detail by Kyoto ceramic artist Takanobu Sawada

Feel the warmth of handcrafted work

Rather than being painted, the animal designs are expressed by carefully carving into the kohiki glaze surface.

Every line carries motion, resulting in a piece full of warmth and unique artistic expression.

Sawada, whose father is also a Kyo and Kiyomizu ware ceramic artist, has been surrounded by pottery since childhood. Now with over 20 years of experience, he is a seasoned artisan in his thirties.

Blending polished technique with a fresh sensibility, he creates distinctly Kyoto-style ceramics that resonate with both tradition and modern life.

 

We invite you to experience the charm of his work as part of your daily routine.

Find the animal that speaks to you and make it your daily companion.
