Technology shines, traditional crafts

Iwate Prefecture's traditional craft "Nanbu Tekki". It is said that in the middle of the 17th century, the feudal lord of the southern part (Morioka) invited a kettle master from Kyoto to Morioka to make a tea ceremony kettle. Most of the processes from design, mold making and assembly to pattern printing and coloring are done by hand, and the firing technique for making iron kettles has also been designated for preservation. Iwachu products are engraved with the name of rock casting to ensure their quality.

Iwachu is also famous as a manufacturer that has expanded ironware to the European tea market by making colorful ironware, and its high technology is with origami paper both in Japan and overseas. We make materials in consideration of the difference in water quality from Japan, and it is a well-known manufacturer overseas so that people say "IWACHU please" instead of kyusu or pots.

Creating the future of Nanbu Tekki

Founded in 1902, a long-established manufacturer of Nanbu ironware. The father of the founder, Sueyoshi Iwashimizu, was a comb craftsman, but Sueyoshi, who was attracted to the charm of Nanbu Tekki, became a disciple of the Nanbu Tekki craftsman and founded in the city after four years of training.

Iwachu has one of the largest factories in the industry and in Japan, and manufactures a wide range of products, from iron kettles and iron kettles that are familiar to modern life to handmade Nanbu iron kettles that carry on the tradition. We have two factories, the Senboku factory that manufactures iron kettles and the Iioka factory that manufactures kitchenware, and Iwate has the only integrated production system from design to sales. In Senboku, you can see the craftsmanship of the pot masters up close, and there is also a gallery with products. We are also focusing on passing on Nanbu Tekki to posterity.
