Made from coarse, unglazed Tokoname clay, it naturally absorbs and releases moisture, helping to prevent salt from hardening due to humidity changes. The result: smooth, easy-to-sprinkle salt, always ready at hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"666\" data-end=\"696\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"666\" data-end=\"696\"\u003eSmart Design for Daily Use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"698\" data-end=\"967\"\u003eThe unsealed lid simply rests on top, making it easy to open and close with one hand while cooking. The wide opening allows for easy scooping with fingers or a small spoon. The jar’s shape is well-balanced and stable, thoughtfully sized to fit comfortably in your hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"969\" data-end=\"1005\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"969\" data-end=\"1005\"\u003eNatural Materials, Timeless Look\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1007\" data-end=\"1342\"\u003eThe surface of Tokoname clay has a warm, textured appearance that suits both kitchen counters and dining tables. Available in two subtle tones — white and grey — you can use them to distinguish different types of salt. The minimalist look complements any setting, while the natural variations in color and texture make each jar unique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1344\" data-end=\"1393\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1344\" data-end=\"1393\"\u003eWhy Tokoname Ware Helps Prevent Salt Clumping\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1395\" data-end=\"1789\"\u003eMost salts clump when exposed to fluctuating humidity. Tokoname ware, being unglazed and porous, absorbs excess moisture and gradually releases it — stabilizing the salt’s environment. Over time, you may notice subtle color changes on the jar’s surface, especially when using mineral-rich salts like sea salt. This is a sign that the jar is actively regulating humidity and protecting the salt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1811\" data-end=\"1830\"\u003eSize｜φ9 × H8.5 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1833\" data-end=\"1869\"\u003eCapacity｜Approx. 200–250 g of salt\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1872\" data-end=\"1915\"\u003eMaterial｜Tokoname ware (unglazed pottery)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1918\" data-end=\"1940\"\u003eMade in Aichi, Japan\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zakkasine.com\/collections\/nakagawa-masashichi\" title=\"nakagawa-masashichi\"\u003erelated products\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1947\" data-end=\"1963\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1947\" data-end=\"1963\"\u003eUsage \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1965\" data-end=\"2061\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1965\" data-end=\"1979\"\u003eBefore Use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1979\" data-end=\"1982\"\u003e• Rinse with cold or lukewarm water and let it dry completely before filling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2063\" data-end=\"2364\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2063\" data-end=\"2077\"\u003eDuring Use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"2077\" data-end=\"2080\"\u003e• Do not use in microwave, dishwasher, oven, or over open flame.\u003cbr data-start=\"2144\" data-end=\"2147\"\u003e• Avoid contact with oils or creams, which may be absorbed into the surface.\u003cbr data-start=\"2223\" data-end=\"2226\"\u003e• Shake the jar occasionally to keep the salt loose.\u003cbr data-start=\"2278\" data-end=\"2281\"\u003e• Avoid sudden temperature changes (e.g., pouring boiling water into a cold jar).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2366\" data-end=\"2592\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2366\" data-end=\"2379\"\u003eAfter Use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"2379\" data-end=\"2382\"\u003e• Hand wash with a soft sponge.
