Product description
The gesture
Its generous shape (φ150 × H90 mm) accommodates soup, a bowl of rice, noodles, or a salad equally well—one bowl for multiple daily uses.
Why it is different
Each bowl is turned on a rokuro from wood scraps or thinned wood: the grain unique to each piece is never repeated, so no two items are truly alike. Available in light hinoki, which highlights the simplicity of the dish, or dark walnut, which adds depth to the presentation.
Why a turned bowl rather than a mass-produced one
Rokuro turning requires extreme precision: the artisan's hand gently sculpts the material to reveal the lines and grains unique to each piece. The wood used comes from scraps or thinned trees rather than trunks cut specifically for the occasion, following a simple principle: waste nothing, and reveal the material rather than hiding it.
Why I chose it
"I chose this bowl for a very simple reason: it makes you want to use it every day. I love its wood, its soft shape, and the fact that it is sober enough to accompany a Japanese meal just as well as more Western cuisine. It is exactly the kind of object I look for: beautiful without being precious, and designed to be a part of everyday life."
You will love it if
- you are looking for a versatile bowl for soup, rice, noodles, or salad
- you love wooden objects whose grain tells a story unique to each piece
- you are sensitive to an approach that values scraps and thinned wood rather than new timber
- you are willing to provide careful maintenance: hand wash, no dishwasher
It is probably not for you if
- you prefer tableware that can be put in the dishwasher without a second thought
- you are looking for several strictly identical bowls for a complete table setting
In practice
Dimensions φ150 × H90 mm, in hinoki or walnut depending on stock availability. Wash by hand, dry immediately, avoid the dishwasher and prolonged soaking. Over time, the wood will develop a patina and reveal its grain even more.
An object designed to last
Made in Japan from wood scraps or thinned wood, this bowl is designed to develop a patina and improve with use, provided it receives simple maintenance: hand washing and immediate drying.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is each Hikiyose bowl one of a kind?
It is turned on a rokuro lathe from an offcut or thinning wood, whose grain, specific to each piece, never repeats.
What can I use this bowl for?

How do I look after it?
Wash it by hand and dry it straight away, avoiding the dishwasher; over time the wood takes on a patina and reveals more of its grain.
