Care & Maintenance
Born from a desire to create something distinctly Takaoka, something only a skilled metal craftsman could make, and something to be used in everyday life, Suzugami is a truly innovative tin product. As its name suggests—“tin paper”—Suzugami is as thin and light as paper, yet remarkably pliable. Each sheet of tin is hammered by hand, not only to add delicate patterns but also to strengthen the metal, allowing it to be bent and reshaped over times. This unique combination of beauty, strength, and flexibility could only be achieved through the expertise of Takaoka’s hammering artisans. Named after Samidare, the long rains of early summer in the lunar calendar, this hammered finish evokes their lingering traces—like delicate streams of water etched across the metal’s surface. Experience the quiet wonder of Suzugami—a metal that flows effortlessly under your hands, inviting you to shape it freely and make it part of your daily rituals.
