Kaneko Kohyo

Founded in 1921 in Toki City, Japan—an area renowned for Mino-yaki ceramics—Kaneko Kohyo blends generations of craftsmanship with a refined, modern sensibility. What began as a maker of sake flasks and altar vessels has evolved into one of Japan’s most beloved ceramic houses, known for pieces that balance tactile warmth with everyday functionality. Each design, from their celebrated Rinka series to minimalist bowls and plates, reflects an organic elegance—soft forms, subtle glazes, and a hand-built authenticity that elevates even the simplest meal. Dishwasher- and microwave-safe yet artfully imperfect, Kaneko Kohyo’s porcelain embodies the harmony of tradition, utility, and quiet beauty.
