KINTO was established in 1972 as
a wholesaler of porcelain and ceramic
tableware in Shiga, Japan. From the
mid-1980s to 2000, we imported and
distributed European tableware and
glassware in Japan.
In the mid-1990s, we recognized
a growing demand for table and kitchen
products which fit into the modern
lifestyle, and began developing our
own line of high quality products which
sensibly integrate Japanese tradition
and the needs of everyday life.
In 2009, we started exporting and our
products now reach over 40 countries.
Our partners include retailers focusing
on high quality design, museum shops,
restaurants and cafes around the world.

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
ABOUT KINTO
From small realizations in everyday
life, the product development team
draws original concepts which are
then developed into a wide range of
products in collaboration with in-house
and freelance designers.
We determine the best materials, style
and form by testing various mock-ups.
The final product will be the result of
many trials and experiments making
sure it satisfies the user.
Usability and aesthetics. We as makers, value the balance between these two elements. Products with an ease of use is comforting
to all the senses and leads to a growing
fondness over time. A tableware with
elegant presence blends naturally with the
living space and adds color to daily life.
We aspire to create products that stand by
you in your everyday life. This is why we
continue to seek inspiration from moments
and stories held precious by the users.
We work to create products which will
inspire and give fulfillment with every
touch and use.
