Designer Desire: Nobuho Miya

Montage of Nobuho Miya cast iron designs

Nobuho Miya is a 3rd-generation Japanese designer practising in cast iron. Working out of the Kamasada Iron Casting Studio in Moriokashi, his designs possess an honesty and simplicity. His bowls, kettles, cooking pots and decorative items are spare, robust, functional, beautiful and tactile. If you love metalware produced by Dansk Designs and Robert Welch you will adore these!

There are a few places that either sell Nobuho Miya designs in the UK or can ship them here. Links to three of them can be found at the bottom of this post.

Have a look at this little film I found that features his products; shame I can’t read the Japanese subtitles!
