FORIS MUG - 360 ML - ASH GREEN - KINTO

Japanese enameled stainless steel mug, stackable, 360ml capacity.

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 stacks like a camping cookset. 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, a saucepan, a lid, or an oven dish. The slot also allows the tableware to be hung on hooks for easy drying. Unlike classic enameled tableware with curved edges, the thin, straight-edge design prevents water from accumulating, which speeds up drying.

Properties of FORIS enamel:

• Stainless steel base: it does not rust
• Very sturdy, durable, and lightweight stackable pieces
• Stain and odor resistant
• Suitable for direct heat, gas or electric, oven, wood fire
• Dishwasher safe
• ATTENTION: do not use 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 distinct form to project concepts and stories, he brought 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 there that designers create simple, beautiful, and functional objects: a Japanese philosophy conceived for everyday life.

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

KINTO encourages a sustainable lifestyle, creates 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.
