About this craft
Nanbu-tekki, or nanbu cast iron, originates from Iwate Prefecture in northern Japan. The tradition dates back centuries; artisans hand-cast the iron using time-honored techniques, often incorporating regional motifs like cherry blossoms. Each piece is individually shaped, making it a functional craft object.
