Artist Biography
Nambu ironware developed in the 17th century under the patronage of the lord of the Nambu domain in Morioka (present-day Iwate Prefecture). Spreading alongside the tea ceremony culture, it is characterized by its excellent heat retention and durability, as well as the solid feel of the iron and its delicate sandy texture. Iron kettles, teapots, and pots are popular. With excellent heat conductivity and a patina that develops with use, these utensils are highly regarded not only in Japan but also overseas as lifelong cookware. Traditional techniques continue to be passed down by skilled artisans, and the product is known worldwide as representative Japanese ironware.
