Since 1879, Kutani Choemon have been handcrafting traditional tableware and utensils in Ishikawa, Japan. And while tradition is a fairly sacred Japanese trait, so is the ability to keep up with the times.
Over a hundred years later, the company’s traditional Kutani products have evolved. Through collaborations with various artists, they’ve been incorporating pop culture icons and symbols into products to create a modern tableware line using a time-tested craft. Skateboarding, drumming and boombox-toting Japanese characters decorate bowls, teacups and chopstick rests in a perfect marriage of old and new. Check out their site to order your own.
