Wooden Tableware Inspired by the Shape of Eggshells

The design was based on the image of a breakfast set, with a view to its usability in everyday life.
Takahashi Kougei, a craftsman, has a high level of skill in thin wood carving, which is one of his specialties.
Designer Rina Ono, who created the "smooth round shape" to take advantage of this technique, used the shape of an egg, often used for breakfast, as a motif.

The oval design of the cup fits easily in the hand without a handle. The smooth surface of the wood makes you want to caress it all the time, and is gentle to the touch when it touches your lips. The thickness of the wood becomes thinner towards the rim, which brings out the full flavor of the beverage.



Made in Asahikawa, Hokkaido, where wood resources are abundant and woodworking is widespread.

The cups are made of lightweight, well-grained Hokkaido wood and are coated with a food-grade coating that prevents color reflection and staining. Tableware by Takahashi Kougei, who originally made wooden furniture legs. They are particular about locally produced materials. Please also see the "Manufacturers" section.

Takahashi Kougei (Woodworker Hidetoshi Takahashi)

Takahashi Kougei produces wheel-thrown wooden tableware in Asahikawa, Hokkaido, Japan. He makes use of the original color and grain of the wood as it is, and is conscious of the usability of wood in everyday life. He stands at the wheel with Japanese product designers Masanori Ohji and Rina Ono, and the three of them create products while checking the feel of the wheel.

Takahashi buys the trees while they are still planted in the mountains, cuts them down, and lets them rest for several years to allow warping and shrinkage to settle before he begins working with them. He selects the best parts of each piece and carefully finishes them by hand, a truly artisanal process.
