POTPURRI is a ceramics maker with a workshop and kiln in Tokyo. We design and make original tableware and offer objects for everyday living.

We value lasting beauty while remaining open to trying new things.

POTPURRI means a mixture in Swedish. Encounters, cultures and craft skills: we bring different qualities together to create objects for everyday life.

Makers, designers, copywriters, chefs and buyers. Making, communicating, selecting and cooking.

What each person values, and the experience they bring, shape our tableware, food and shops.

Touching clay, shaping it and firing it. Through repeated prototypes made with our own hands, we explore the character of each piece and how it feels to use.

Working with craftspeople in Japan's production regions, we create both our own collections and custom tableware for companies and brands, giving different ideas a tangible form.

Feel the textures and colours of tableware, or discover an unexpected everyday tool. At Shoin-jinja, you can also enjoy food and ice cream served with our pieces.

Pick something up and share a few words with someone. A place where such encounters open up a little more enjoyment in everyday life.

Arrange seasonal flowers and pause with a favourite cup. Feel close to natural colours and materials as you gather around the table with family and friends.

We want to bring that appreciation of ordinary moments into life in Japan too, creating things that become more loved with use and settle naturally into each day.
