Description
Eki (慧喜, "wise joy") is defined by its glaze: a warm, sandy amber interior with a dense mottled pattern in deeper brown, while the exterior sits in a plain, quiet brown. Produced in Mizunami, Gifu as part of Kanesuzu's century-long tradition of professional tableware, each piece is lead- and cadmium-free and built for the demands of daily service. Eki pairs naturally with wood, lacquer, and unglazed stone, and brings warmth to a table that might otherwise read as austere.

About Mino Ware 美濃焼
Mino ware, or Mino-yaki (美濃焼), is one of Japan's oldest pottery traditions, with roots stretching back over 1,300 years in Gifu Prefecture in central Japan. The region's geology, rich in diverse clays, feldspar, and silica, has made it the largest ceramics-producing region in Japan, accounting for roughly half of all tableware made in the country today. Rather than working within a single style, Mino has always been defined by its range, from traditional craft pieces to professional tableware for restaurants and hotels.
ARJ works with a selection of kilns in Mino, each with its own approach to clay, glaze, and form. What they share is a commitment to making tableware that holds up in daily use while carrying the material character that comes from working within a tradition this deep. The pieces are earthy, considered, and built to last.
