The IRORI Pot is a cast iron pot made with the traditional techniques of Nambu ironware, a craft from Iwate Prefecture with roots in the 17th century (1600s). Paired with a lid of charred Japanese cedar, it lets you simmer, stir-fry, steam, deep-fry, sear, and cook rice, all in one pot.




Cast Iron That Grows with Use

Its thick cast iron holds heat long after the flame is turned off, keeping meals warm at the table. The uncoated surface develops a natural oil seasoning as you cook, becoming more resistant to rust and sticking with every use, and releases a small amount of natural iron into your food.


One Pot for Every Meal

From sukiyaki and hot pot to rice, stews, and fried dishes, the IRORI Pot moves easily from stove to table. The charred cedar lid absorbs condensation, keeps the heat in, and stays cool to the touch, while its natural grain sits beautifully beside the iron.
