Traditional Japanese Craft Meets Graphic Design Through Visual Metaphor
HUE PRODUCTS

Innovating Wooden Tableware

TSK has stood alongside professionals for nearly 50 years. Our craftsmanship is rooted in the idea of Ichiboku Ichiyo—that every piece of wood, shaped by nature, is unique.

Woodworking artisans have mastered the art of carving each piece from a single block of wood, always guided by the character of the material. But we believed wooden tableware could be more—that the limitations of traditional carving had narrowed its possibilities.

We wanted to create wooden tableware that breaks free from convention and inspires chefs’ creativity. That belief led to HUE, our new collection where traditional Japanese craftsmanship meets graphic design.

Reimagining Japanese Aesthetics Through Playful Color and Visual Metaphor

HUE is a new collection of tableware inspired by the creative spirit of hue and hiyu, the Japanese word for “metaphor.” We treasure the traditional Japanese aesthetic of mitate, the art of visual metaphor. Our tableware evokes Japanese landscapes, the changing seasons, and the quiet presence of nature. When food is served and the artisan’s metaphor meets the user’s imagination, each plate becomes complete.

By blending traditional techniques with modern aesthetics, we continue to redefine Japanese style. Each of our kumiko patterns is assembled by hand, as if tracing the lines of a graphic design. The delicate variations unique to handcrafting cast playful silhouettes across the dining table. Our rokuro products feature glaze-inspired finishes applied to the carved wood grain, creating a contrast between the natural wood and vibrant color, and deep gradients that bring each piece to life.

Versatile Presentation with Mixed Materials

From traditional Japanese cuisine to innovative dining, the modern culinary world brings together diverse food cultures, creating new expressions and experiences.

Designed for greater versatility, each piece makes plating effortless. By combining a distinctly Japanese character with a modern aesthetic, the collection blends naturally with any cuisine. The warmth and texture of natural wood give every dish a new character. Paired with materials such as ceramic or glass, the contrast adds depth. Create extraordinary dining experiences for your guests with tableware that adds a distinctive touch and sparks new ideas.

TSK will continue to celebrate the unique character of wooden tableware and explore its possibilities on a global scale.

    BENTO was inspired by the Japanese tradition of noasobi, or enjoying a picnic in nature. The kumiko lid emphasizes clean, linear forms and transparency through a sashimono structure. Each lattice is carefully assembled by skilled artisans, creating patterns inspired by flowers and leaves. As gentle light filters through, the shadows transform from flowers into butterflies, reflecting HUE’s playful spirit. Glimpses of the food through the lattice build anticipation for what’s inside.

  • ZENSHIKI / Kumiko

    ZENSHIKI is a round placemat that embraces the beauty of negative space. It is crafted using kumiko, a traditional Japanese technique where each wooden piece is hand-carved by artisans and assembled without nails. To provide greater stability for tableware, the lattice pattern becomes finer toward the center. The design is inspired by nature, incorporating floral, leaf, and stem motifs—a blend of traditional craftsmanship and contemporary aesthetics. When evening light falls, the kumiko lattice casts patterns that complement the artistry of the cuisine. The contrast of light and shadow brings elegance to the dining experience.
