For your shop, brand or restaurant.

Private label tableware for retailers

Create ceramic pieces that express your shop’s character or develop a collection for your own brand. We begin with your customers, your setting and the objects you want to bring into everyday life.

Custom ceramics for cafés and restaurants

A glaze that brings out a dish, a shape that feels right in the hand, or a piece that works well in daily service. Tell us about your menu and how you plan to use the tableware.

A Japanese manufacturer with a Tokyo workshop.

We work with clay, develop prototypes and fire ceramics in our own Tokyo workshop. We also collaborate with craftspeople in Japan’s pottery regions, selecting production methods to suit each project.

Discuss your requirements with us, from ceramic design and prototyping to manufacturing. The production approach depends on the shape, materials, decoration and quantities involved.

Looking for small-batch production?

If you are considering a limited run for a small shop, a new menu or a first collection, let us know your preferred quantity.

Minimum order quantities (MOQ), sample costs, unit prices and lead times vary by design and production method. We assess whether a small-batch order is feasible after reviewing your specifications; there is no single minimum quantity for every project.

From first ideas to finished pieces.

  1. Share your idea.
    Tell us about the use, style, quantity, budget and preferred delivery date.
  2. Explore design and production.
    We review shape, colour, practical requirements and feasible manufacturing options.
  3. Agree on samples and a quotation.
    Sample work and costs are discussed before proceeding. We confirm the finish and production requirements with you.
  4. Confirm production and delivery.
    Quantities, timing, inspection criteria and delivery arrangements are agreed for the project.

No. You can start with your intended use, a description of your shop or restaurant, and reference photographs or sketches.

What is the minimum order quantity?

The MOQ depends on the specifications. Share your target quantity so that we can assess suitable production methods and small-batch feasibility.

Can overseas businesses enquire?

Yes. Please include the destination country or region, intended use, specifications, quantity and desired timing. Production and international delivery conditions are reviewed individually.
