The Story

I never thought I needed a milk jug until I had one. Between morning matcha, sourdough baking and everyday cooking, it quietly became one of the most-used pieces in my kitchen—a small vessel that proves its worth through daily ritual.

The Making Process

Each jug begins with 400 g of stoneware clay and is thrown and trimmed by hand on the potter's wheel. The handle is pulled separately and attached by hand. The jugs are then left to dry slowly for several days before being bisque-fired to 1040°C. Once cooled, each piece is hand-dipped in a high-fire glaze. They are then returned to the kiln and fired to 1260°C, creating a strong, durable, non-porous, food-safe finish. Finally, the foot of each jug is carefully sanded by hand to leave a smooth surface that feels gentle against the table.
