F/style Copper Katakuchi

Description:
Katakuchi – serving vessels with a single spout – are traditionally used for sake. The wide, circular design has been a part of Japanese life for centuries. These handmade, copper katakuchi fit comfortably in the palm of your hand, and are perfect for their traditional use of sake serving in addition to serving sauces, dressings, or water. The tiny, barely-there spout will result in a delicate, elegant stream!

Variation:
Due to the handmade nature of these katakuchi, there may be slight variation from piece to piece. This copper may patina over time and change color with use.

History: 
Emi Igarashi and Wakano Hoshino, both born in Niigata Japan, co-founded the brand ‘F/style’ in 2001. By focusing on the art of making things, or “monozukuri” in Japanese, F/style’s mission is to re-popularize ancient Japanese craft by applying them to new and contemporary designs that fit within a wide-range of aesthetics. Based in their hometown of Niigata Japan, F/style creates made-to-last pieces, that are thoughtfully designed for the home and for personal use.
