Crafted from Japanese zelkova wood, each piece begins with timber that has been carefully dried for around six months. Skilled makers in Odawara carve every bowl by hand, even crafting their own blades to achieve precise, uncompromising workmanship.

Zelkova is a traditional material in Japan, valued for its warm red-to-gold hues and its distinct grain that clearly reflects the seasons in the wood. It has long been used for tableware, trays and even shrine pillars.

For the finish, a safe urethane coating — the same used for Odawara’s school lunch bowls — is applied to protect the wood while allowing the grain to stand out.

Versatile in form and size, it works beautifully for soups, salads and shared dishes, and suits any table setting.

Maker / Brand

Sonobe Sangyo

Based in the wooded hills of Odawara, Sonobe Sangyo is a long-standing workshop known for its thoughtful approach to Japanese woodcraft. From carefully drying each piece of timber to hand-carving with tools they make themselves, their work reflects a deep respect for both material and craft.

Using traditional Japanese woods such as zelkova, cherry and maple, they create tableware that feels warm, natural and effortless in everyday use. Every piece carries the quiet character of the wood and the care of the hands that shaped it.

Care & Characteristics

Care

After washing, gently clean with mild detergent and a soft sponge.
Rinse well and place upside down in a dish rack or on the sink to dry.
Avoid soaking or leaving the piece submerged in water for long periods.
Not suitable for microwave, oven, induction, open flame, dishwasher or dryer use.
Keep away from direct sunlight, strong air-conditioning, heaters or other heat-emitting appliances.
Do not sterilise by boiling or expose to very hot water.
If you notice a natural wood scent when first opened, simply remove it from the box and leave it in a well-ventilated space for a few days.
With everyday use and proper care, the wood will develop a richer tone and beautiful character over time.

Characteristics
Each piece is made from natural wood and carries its own unique grain, colour, and markings. These natural variations are part of the material’s character and make every piece one of a kind.
