The designer of Hasami Porcelain, Takuhiro Shinomoto, established the brand in 2003 and began manufacturing beautiful porcelain dishware using historical Japanese techniques. Named after Hasami, a town in Japan known for their impressive pottery, this brand specializes in employing 400-year-old Japanese techniques that the earliest potters used. The desire of Shinomoto was to combine the organic quality created by traditional Japanese production methods with contemporary dinnerware design. Individuality, usability, simplicity, and tactility are the key reasons that this brand, and their processes of creation, is special.Â
Hasami porcelain's smooth, cozy feel, skillfully sculpted with contemporary lines and pleasing aesthetics, is what gives it its allure. Compared to typical porcelain, Hasami Porcelain has a more natural feel because of its characteristic matte finish. Every piece features a functional nested design that makes food serving and storage more effective and easy. Hasami Porcelain skillfully combines elements of its ancient heritage with modern design to become a 21st century sensation.
