Crafted by Nankei Pottery, which has been producing tea kettles in Yokkaichi for over 100 years, the Banko-yaki coffee ware is not only aesthetically pleasing with its monochromatic elegance but also distinguished by the durability imparted by centuries-old traditional techniques. Made from high-iron-content black clay and left unglazed, the pieces deepen in color and develop a unique patina with use, allowing one to savor the evolving beauty that time bestows.

Are you familiar with the characteristic 'kannyu' (crazing) found in Japanese ceramics? 'Kannyu' refers to a crackle pattern that appears on the surface of ceramics as they are cooled after being fired in a kiln. This phenomenon occurs due to the difference in shrinkage between the body of the ceramic material and the glaze; the glaze cracks and sets in this state as it typically shrinks more than the ceramic body.

In Japan, the tradition of "celebratory sake" embodies the auspicious act of drinking or gifting sake on special occasions. For life's milestones such as weddings, births, longevity celebrations, housewarmings, business openings, and promotions, celebratory sake is a favored gift. The ceremonial act of "kagami biraki," where the lid of a sake barrel is opened, symbolizes the commencement of a new journey, making sake an especially fortuitous gift for weddings.
