Products A dedicated stove base (stove warmer) sculpted with architectural precision, stripped of all superfluous details to achieve a seamless visual harmony with the donabe. Moving far beyond simple utility, this contemporary masterpiece was independently researched and engineered by ceramic artist Koichi Mizuno. He meticulously calculated its exact elevation to maximize the combustion efficiency of an alcohol burner while ensuring a grounded, peaceful stability on the dining table. The moment it is paired with the MADOKA donabe, they lock into a satisfying unity, creating a refined, rhythmic height. This elegant combination instantly elevates your ordinary, everyday home-cooked meals into a serene setting reminiscent of a quiet art gallery. Savoring your warm soup or slow-cooked stews while watching the delicate shadows cast by a tiny flame onto the matte white ceramic skin brings a deep sense of comfort. Far beyond the winter months, this heat-resistant tool serves as a stunning sculptural object for modern interiors all year round, bringing a new depth of luxury and a peaceful pause to your daily dining experience.

COCHI’s Donabe (Japanese clay pot) is crafted from specially selected heat-resistant clay, thoughtfully designed to let you enjoy its beautiful evolution over time.

As it becomes an integral part of your dining table, you may notice natural darkening or charring on the base, along with kannyu―the fine, delicate crackles in the glaze unique to traditional earthenware. These natural variations are not flaws; rather, they are beautiful testaments to the ceramic adapting to the flame and growing alongside your daily life.

Please embrace these changes as your pot's unique character and continue to use it with peace of mind.

To ensure you can safely cherish your Donabe for years to come, we have prepared essential guidelines covering initial preparation, daily care, and cooking precautions.
