お酒はもちろん、ドレッシングや蕎麦つゆを入れても◎。
きゅっとすぼんだ口先が、空間に変化をもたらし、いつもと違った食卓を演出してくれます。
また、漆ならではのふっくらとした質感、奥行きのある表情は「本堅地技法」によるもの。
天然木に布着せ行い、「輪島地の粉」を用いた下地を施し、中塗り、上塗りと丁寧に塗りを重ね仕上げています。
使い込むことで少しずつ色が明るくなり、艶も増していく、その変化も美しいのが特徴です。

A versatile vessel which is easy to use.

KATAKUCHI/Cylinder has sharp upstanding shape. Making spouts using “Kurikiji (literary means hollowed wooden cores for lacquer ware)” is what Kirimoto specializes in as a wood core
manufacturer. The finely shaped Katakuchi enhances the flavor and it tastes more delicious. It is not limited only to serving Japanese sake. It also can be used as a salad dressing pot, and also a vessel to serve many other dishes. The remarkable point is the spout. It does not drip when
pouring. Soft texture and a depth of expression which are unique to Urushi lacquerware are
created using "Hon Kataji" painting technique.
Lacquer cloth is applied to natural wood on the parts of the piece that are easily damaged, such as edges, base footings. Then, diatomaceous earth collected from Mt. Komine in Wajima City
that has been fired and made into a powder called Wajima jinoko is applied as a base coat, then it is polished, given a mid-coat, then a top coat. The more you use it, the more it gains
brightness and luster and you can enjoy this change of expression over the years.
The cylinder shape is easy to hold and easy to use.
