A Bowl That Gives You a Little “Oni Power”

Add a touch of encouragement to your everyday meals.
This charming Japanese rice bowl features red and blue Oni (demons)—not as fearsome creatures, but as gentle guardians quietly cheering you on.

In traditional Japanese folklore, Oni were not merely beings to be feared.
They were believed to dwell beyond the human world—in deep mountains or distant seas—possessing powerful spiritual energy.
Rather than bringing harm, Oni were thought to drive away negative forces and restore vitality, much like recharging a tired spirit.

This rice bowl carries that ancient belief, reimagined as a warm and playful story for modern life.

About Hasami Ware

Hasami ware is a traditional Japanese porcelain with a history dating back to the Edo period.
Known for its durability, clean white porcelain, and refined painting techniques, Hasami ware has long been cherished for everyday use.

creating tableware that gently supports the heart of the user.

Each piece carries a quiet kindness—meant to be used, enjoyed, and lived with.
