FORIS PLATE - PLATE / PAN - 26 CM - ASH GREEN - KINTO

Large enameled stainless steel plate, 26cm diameter. Can also be used as a pan with its detachable handle (sold separately), or as a baking dish.

FORIS is functional beauty. A collection of enameled stainless steel tableware designed for camping, barbecues, and outdoor living, for the home and everyday life. The clean design and natural colors blend perfectly into a wild environment, in harmony with the landscape.

Practical, easy to store and transport, each piece is stackable, like a camping mess kit. The stainless steel is thin, lightweight, yet strong and rust-resistant.

The originality of Kinto's design lies in its multi-functionality, thanks to the slot created on the side, which allows each piece to be used with a detachable handle to turn it into a cooking utensil: FORIS is not just a plate, bowl, or mug, it is a frying pan, saucepan, lid, or baking dish. The slot also allows the tableware to be hung on hooks for easy drying. Unlike traditional enameled tableware with rolled edges, the thin, straight-edged design prevents water from pooling, which speeds up drying.

FORIS enamel properties:

• Stainless steel base: it does not rust
• Stackable pieces that are very sturdy, durable, and lightweight
• Stain and odor resistant
• Suitable for direct heat, gas or electric, oven, wood fire
• Dishwasher safe
• CAUTION: do not put in the microwave

JIN KURAMOTO

To imagine this collection, Kinto called upon Jin Kuramoto, an industrial designer passionate about the outdoors and an experienced fisherman. Renowned for giving design concepts and project stories a distinct form, he contributed many ideas from his personal experience, such as the slots in the bowl to facilitate drying and the attachment of the handle to transform them into cooking utensils.

Jin is a director of the Japan Creative Association and vice-chairman of the Good Design Award screening committee.

KINTO

Kinto was founded in 1979 in Hikone, Shiga Prefecture, Japan, in a rural landscape with no train station or main road nearby.

It is here that designers create simple, beautiful, and functional objects: a Japanese philosophy designed for daily life.

Since 2023, the KINTO FARM has been launched, a farm born from scratch on raw land, a field of exploration for a lifestyle connected to nature, the seasons, and the community.

KINTO encourages a sustainable lifestyle, creating designs that adapt to all ways of life, sedentary or nomadic, indoor or outdoor, designs that accompany you everywhere, at any time of the day.
