Do you know this magical tableware? You can find your original use in various situations.
KAGO is the masterpiece of Nousaku, an atelier of Japanese traditional casting. A fusion produced this novel tableware. The traditional casting skill of craftsmen in Takaoka, Toyama prefecture met the novel idea of the creator.
You can change the form of this tin tableware in accordance with your free idea. The form of KAGO you make may be the only one thing in the world. We believe that you will have a strong attachment to this free tin tableware.
KAGO has gained popularity by not only Japanese people, but also the creators in Europe or the United States of America.
The tin of Nousaku can make KAGO
Tin is the third expensive metal after gold and silver. Tin is high antibacterial effect, hard to be oxidized, and hard to cause the metal allergy.
Nousaku uses the 100% real tin. Usually, tin tableware is made by an alloy of tin and other metal material. In this way, the craftsmen are easy to make finishing. However, tin of Nousaku does not include any other materials.
100% real tin is very soft so that you can bend easily (depend on the form or thick, though). When you bend KAGO, you can hear some dull sound. This is not a sound of breaking. This sound is called “tin cry.” Tin molecule makes this sound.
You may become addicted to this sound.
The 100% tin tableware fits our hand and various life styles. Enjoy the real texture of tin.
How soft the KAGO is?
Let’s bend KAGO to see how soft it is.
First, let’s pull up the KAGO square L. You can easily stretch it. The touch is similar to a bold wire.
You may be surprised that you can bend so easily. However, you do not have to worry about breaking. Unless you twist this tin tableware, it will not break.
The square type of KAGO has large mesh. So you can stretch it dynamically.
Next, let’s bend dahlia tin tableware. We bend the KAGO of dahlia L in the picture below.
Hold the both ends, and bend towards inside. You may feel that dahlia type is solid and hard rather than square type.
In fact, the dahlia tableware has smaller mesh than square, it cannot stretch vertically or horizontally that much.
You can easily change the form of square tin tableware. On the other hand, dahlia type is suitable for basket use.
