Curator's Note
"Each piece in this collection was selected not merely for its beauty, but for the story it carries — the hands that shaped it, the fire that tempered it, and the centuries of tradition that breathe through every curve. We choose as we would for our own home."
— The NAMBUTEKKI Curation Team, Morioka

Every kettle in this collection was made using the traditional 68-step sand mold casting process, unchanged since the Edo period.

Why Choose Nambu Ironware

健康

Naturally Enriches Water

Cast iron kettles release trace iron into boiling water, improving taste and contributing to daily iron intake — a benefit recognized by Japanese medical studies.

耐久

Built for Generations

With proper care, a Nambu tetsubin lasts a lifetime and beyond. Many families in Iwate still use kettles passed down through three generations.

68 Steps, One Kettle

Each kettle requires 68 separate steps across 2 months — from hand-pressing the sand mold to the final inspection. No shortcuts, no mass production.
