Capture the best moment.

The 100% pure tin material does not contain lead. Casting your tailor-made snowy-white tin plate in just two hours, forming a unique scenery by creating a double enjoyment of vision and taste for your dining table.

A piece of metal is slowly hammered from a flat surface into a shallow dish, transforming step by step into different utensils such as bowls, cups, bottles, and teapots. This technique is also known as "hammering" in Japan.
After the utensils are formed, flat and decorative hammers are used to tap on the surface of the finished product, making it more elegant and precious.

Casting is the easiest-to-learn and most fun craft among many tin art skills. Both adults and kids can create practical and elegant living utensils.
By casting unique textures that can be replicated on utensils, we have designed sake cups in different shapes, then cast into silvery white pure tin utensils.
Learn more : Differences of Forging and Casting
- Tin is a soft metal, please avoid using hard object or applying too much pressure on the utensil while cleaning
- Pure tin utensils are intolerant to acid and alkaline, so they are not suitable for containing soda, lemon juice and vinegar
- Pure tin has a low melting point and boiling point. High or low temp. may destroyed it’s shape or appearance
  Recommended usage temperature: at room temperature / ~20°C or slightly above/below
- Do not store the utensils in refrigerator and avoid direct contact with fire
- Oxide would be formed on the surface of the pure tin utensils after long exposure to air, using baking soda and water that are mixed into toothpaste texture would help cleaning with the oxide, and brighten the surface.
