Japanese Kitchenware Tenugui, Sarashi & Steamer Cloths Tawashi & Sasara Brushes Kitchen Utensils & Accessories Saibashi Cooking Chopsticks
Japanese Kitchenware brings together tools, utensils, and cookware specific to Japanese cuisine — many designs perfected over centuries by skilled artisans, with a functional beauty defined by clean lines and natural textures. From ohitsu for storing and serving rice to seiro for steaming, hinoki manaita cutting boards, and dantsuki pots built for bamboo steamers, explore the full range of what Japanese kitchenware has to offer.
Tenugui are traditional Japanese cloths used in the kitchen as an everyday drying towel, while sarashi are bleached white towels prized for sanitizing cutting surfaces — often seen under a sushi chef's knife — and drying blanched vegetables and washed herbs. This collection also includes steamer cloths for bamboo steamers and morikatsu towels, each suited to its own task in the Japanese kitchen.
Tawashi and sasara are traditional Japanese kitchen brushes — tawashi coiled from shuro palm fiber for scrubbing wooden boards and steamers without soap; sasara made from bound bamboo or sometimes synthetic materials bound with wire, used for scrubbing woks and cleaning fish.
Japanese kitchen utensils and accessories are shaped by a cooking culture that values precision — tools built for specific techniques, like a skimmer designed for blanching or a strainer built for noodles rather than general use. This collection brings together functional pieces and accessories made from quality wood and metal, designed to last and meant to be used.
Saibashi are long cooking chopsticks, typically around 33cm, designed to keep hands safely away from steam, oil, and heat while cooking. Traditionally made from bamboo, this collection also includes hinoki cypress saibashi, urushi-lacquered saibashi, and a unique diamond-cut bamboo saibashi.
