Donabe Kyofu Shirahakeme clay pot on white background

Donabe Kyofu Shirahakeme Clay Pot 17cm | Made in Japan

$99.00

Bring the warmth of authentic Japanese home cooking to your table with the Kyofu Shirahakeme Donabe — a traditional clay pot handcrafted in the Banko Yaki tradition. Its soft white brushed glaze (shirahakeme) over natural clay gives every pot a gentle, one-of-a-kind character that only deepens with use.

Perfectly sized for one, this donabe is ideal for simmering nabe hot pots, steaming rice, or slow-cooking soups. The clay retains and radiates heat evenly, coaxing out deeper flavours the way only earthenware can.
