FORIS PLATE - PLATE / PAN - 26 CM - SAND BEIGE - KINTO
Large enameled stainless steel plate, 26cm in diameter. Can also be used as a frying pan with its removable 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 wild environments, in harmony with the landscape.
Practical, easy to store and transport, each piece is stackable, like camping cookware. The stainless steel is thin and 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 removable handle to turn it into a cooking utensil: FORIS is not just a plate, bowl, or cup; 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 classic enameled tableware with rolled edges, the thin, straight-edged design prevents water from pooling, which speeds up drying.
Properties of FORIS enamel:
- Stainless steel base: does not rust
- Very strong, durable, and lightweight stackable pieces
- Resistant to stains and odors
- Suitable for direct heat, gas or electric, oven, wood fire
- Dishwasher safe
- WARNING: do not use in the microwave
JIN KURAMOTO
To conceive this collection, Kinto called upon Jin Kuramoto, an industrial designer passionate about the outdoors and an experienced fisherman. Renowned for giving 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.
Jun 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.
This is where the designers create simple, beautiful, and functional objects: a Japanese philosophy designed for everyday life.
Since 2023, KINTO FARM has been launched, a farm built from scratch on raw land, an exploration field 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.
