HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS
■ Chopsticks
Because each chopstick is handmade, slight variations in size and shape may occur.
・The glaze used is prone to dripping and unevenness, so no two pieces are exactly alike. Enjoy the scenery of the glaze on the chopsticks.
・Avoid strong friction, the use of chlorine-based detergents, or soaking the chopsticks, as these may cause discoloration.
■ Chopstick Rest
After use, avoid soaking the chopsticks. Instead, wash them promptly in hot or cold water and wipe dry with a soft cloth.
・Store them away from direct sunlight, as this may cause deformation or discoloration.
・Avoid using them near fire or in hot water.・
Avoid using scrubbing brushes or abrasives.
・If the chopsticks become dull or damaged, discontinue use and replace them promptly.・The chopsticks
have tapered tips, so to prevent accidents, keep them out of reach of children.
・Do not use them for any purpose other than their intended purpose.
MINO POTTERY
The Mino region is known as Japan's leading pottery producer. With a history spanning over 1,000 years, it has produced a wide variety of ceramics to suit the styles of each era.
Among the 15 traditional crafts, four types, Setoguro, Kiseto, Shino, and Oribe, are pottery pieces with balanced colors that have become synonymous with the name Mino ware. Carrying on the tradition of Mino ware from the time when it was affectionately known as "Hyogemono" (pronounced "hyogemono"; meaning "things with charm"), we have created tableware suitable for everyday use on modern dining tables, to be passed down to the next generation. Experience
the beauty of Mino ware, which has supported Japanese dining tables for over 1,000 years, by combining time-honored traditions with modern techniques, clay, and glazes. Experience the beauty of "Heuge" through this collection.
The four colors of Mino ware, the lustrous black Setoguro, the meltingly natural white Shino, the deep green and austere Oribe, and the warm yellow Kiseto, are the traditional colors of Mino ware that have been passed down for 1,000 years. They are the perfect colors to bring out the flavor of Japanese ingredients.
