Care Guide

Like all tableware and handmade homewares, our products should be used with some degree of care to help keep them looking good. These are wood-fired, often unglazed ceramics, and Iwami san recommends handwashing only and not putting in the dishwasher or microwave.

Meet the Maker:

Tobo Yukari Gama

Shinsuke Iwami studied oil painting at university but became a salaryman after graduation. Soon disillusioned with the life of a salaryman, he quit to make pottery despite having no previous experience.

He prefers natural glazes which are unpredictable and inconsistent, so each time he empties the kiln he can enounter unexpected colours and effects. His work is often textured and mysterious, with an organic and elemental feel.

A cheerful, chatty and inquisitive man, he also frequently travels to the Danish island of Bornholm to make and be inspired by the community of artists there.
