OUR STORY
Shakudani stone has been passed down in Fukui since ancient times.
It is also known as "blue stone" because it changes to deep blue when wet, and stones with a light blue color and fine grain are considered to be of high quality.
Currently, Shakudani stone, which is no longer mined, is in danger of being forgotten by people.
The "Rivived Shakudani Stone: Fukui Gem" series was developed to pass on Fukui's unique stone culture to future.
We collected Shakudani stones that had been left in old houses in Fukui and repurposed them into tableware. We hope that the newly reborn Shakudani stones will be shown to people's lives again.
