Collection: Norikazu Kizawa
About the Artist – Norikazu’s Hand-Painted Ceramics from Kyoto
This collection features the work of Norikazu, a Kyoto-based ceramic artist specializing in hand-painted porcelain. Each piece is created with the philosophy of “art meant to be used in daily life,” combining beauty and practicality in every stroke.
Norikazu’s ceramic works are not only functional—such as chopstick rests, sake cups, cups & saucers—but are also designed to bring joy and inspiration to everyday living. A chopstick rest may double as a display piece, and a small cup can serve not only drinks but appetizers or desserts as well. The artist encourages each customer to explore their own unique way of enjoying these pieces.
🖌️ One-of-a-Kind Creations
In today’s world filled with mass-produced items, Norikazu strives to offer something truly special—one-of-a-kind ceramics that feel personal and irreplaceable. Most works are created as single editions, ensuring that your piece is truly yours alone.
However, in the spirit of accessibility, select designs may be made available again through limited reproductions. If you are interested in a restock or made-to-order item, please feel free to contact us.
🏺 About the Craftsmanship
Each piece is crafted through a thoughtful and intricate process that reflects Norikazu’s commitment to detail, tradition, and innovation in design.
