Shigeki Fujishiro It is a pitcher calculated to be easy to pour. Although it is a large size pitcher, by making the height of the spout and the handle the same, it is made to be stable and easy to pour even with the contents inside. The straight body structure and the softness of the cylindrical form make this a lovely item. The matte color gives a calm impression and fits perfectly on any table.

Within Arita, overglaze itself is commonly referred to as akae or literally ‘red painting’ and has historically been used with great deference for centuries, an aspect that Fujishiro picked up on and decided to use as the central concept for his design range. This is a series of daily use items whose form is composed in clean, straight lines, emphasising a functionality that will make them a versatile and harmonious addition to Asian and Western dining tables alike.
