---------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Cautions for using electrical products】 When using electrical appliances, please note that the voltage is different from that of Japan, which may cause malfunctions. Since the plug type is Japan type(A or B type), please check the voltage and use a transformer. Please note that a transformer is different from a conversion adapter. We are not responsible for malfunctions caused by use without a transformer.

【Voltage Compatibility】 When using electrical appliances, please note that they are designed for Japanese voltage specifications (90-110V), so if you use them with a different voltage, it may cause a malfunction.

【Plug Type】 Our products use Japanese plug types (A or B type). Please use a conversion adapter if necessary.

【Important Note on Transformers and Adapters】 A transformer adjusts voltage to match your device’s requirements. A conversion adapter only changes the plug shape and does not adjust voltage. Using only a conversion adapter without a transformer may result in damage to the product.

【Liability】 We are not responsible for malfunctions or damages caused by improper use, such as operating the product without a transformer. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [Breathing soil, Shigaraki soil keeps the texture chewy] This ohitsu is made with Shigaraki soil and has a humidity control effect. Even if you refrigerate freshly cooked rice and reheat it in the microwave, it will maintain its chewy texture. Another great feature is that water droplets do not collect on the inside of the bowl when reheating, making it more comfortable to eat. If you save one meal's worth of rice, you can store, reheat, and eat it all in one bowl. When used as a storage container, it can hold approximately 0.8 go = 2 servings of rice. Because the lid is flat, the ohitsu can be stacked on top of each other for compact storage. We also recommend using it as a matching small plate. Why can you reheat rice deliciously? Shigaraki soil has the property of creating very small pores on the surface and inside. These tiny pores absorb moisture and turn it back into steam when heated in the microwave. Shigaraki soil is so hygroscopic that it is described as ``breathing soil'' in the region where it is produced. This ohitsu has a moisture-controlling effect because the back of the lid is made with a non-glaze finish that does not block the pores. Other than the back of the lid, it has a glossy finish that prevents rice from sticking and is easy to clean. The ohito comes in two colors: luxurious black and natural half-matte beige, as well as a store-exclusive red color. Each ohitsu is carefully crafted by a pottery master who knows the properties of Shigaraki clay, a type of clay that breathes, and has a simple yet flavorful finish. Can be used in the microwave ◯, Cannot be used in the dishwasher ×, Cannot be used in the oven × [About the pottery] - Because the glaze is easily changed depending on the temperature and firing conditions, the size, color, texture, and finish of penetration (cracks) may vary from piece to piece. ・As each piece is finished by hand, there are individual differences in the carved pattern, pattern, and glaze coverage. ・Depending on the compatibility with the fabric, there may be individual differences in the position of the pattern and the shade of the color.
