- Takaoka Iron Kettle: Takaoka Iron Kettles are iron kettles produced in Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture. The biggest feature of the Takaoka Iron Kettle is a unique technique known as "Wax Casting" which creates a beautiful background pattern. It's history dates back to more than 400 years ago and its delicate yet dynamic technique has been passed on generation after generation by Takaoka craftsmen.
- About the Patterns: Phoenix - The expressive iron kettle has flying up to the top Phoenix at the front, and overlooking Phoenix at the back. As the Phoenix being a fire God and sacred animal, this is considered good luck. This is a luxurious product. A pair of Phoenix expanding the wings, it has a lively and uplifting feeling.
