Inspired by traditional Japanese storage jars, this salt pot is made from unglazed Shigaraki clay—a material prized for its breathability and moisture-regulating properties. For centuries, vessels like this were used to store grains, tea leaves, and other everyday essentials in Japanese homes. The porous clay naturally absorbs and releases moisture, helping salt stay in its ideal state: smooth and clump-free for dry salts, gently soft for moist varieties like sea salt.

Each piece is carefully shaped and finished by artisans in Shiga, continuing a quiet tradition where form follows function.

Available in charcoal and bone finishes, the larger pot brings both functionality and sophistication to your kitchen. Looking for a different shape to complement your countertop? Check out the Shigaraki Salt Pot (S)—its rounder, petite design pairs beautifully with this one for a charming and practical duo.

Add timeless Japanese craftsmanship to your kitchen with this elegant and practical salt pot!
