January Release

“Traditional crafts are for everyday use. They have no meaning if they are not used.”

So says Hidetaka Shimizu (traditional craftsman).

The first skill he learned was hand polishing. This involves using both the hands and the eyes to carefully polish the cut surfaces, and it is a task that takes time. This young man, who was charmed by Edo Kiriko in his youth, learned each of the techniques involved one by one, and after studying for around a dozen years, he finally became independent and set up his own workshop and store.

"It has been scientifically proven in experiments that the sense of taste is affected by what can be seen, heard and felt. Beautiful designs and colors that delight the eyes and the feel of fine items in the hands and on the lips are all elements that go to create the sense of taste.

It is because of this that I believe that everyone should introduce fine articles into their everyday lifestyles to turn every day into a pleasant experience.

This craftsman is firm in this belief."

Bring that Japanese izakaya vibe to your table with the Green Life Liftable, a compact, steel tabletop grill made for yakitori skewers, seafood, veg, and small-batch grilling. The lift-up design lets you raise the cooking grate to provide better heat control and makes it easier to add charcoal during the cooking process. Easy. 

The GreenLife Tabletop BBQ's are the perfect alternative to the bulkier clay Hibachi's when portability and ease of use are the priority. Crafted in Sanjo, Niigata with the typical attention to detail expected of goods from this area, they are a lightweight, no-fuss option for yakitori, steaks, vegetables, seafood, or anything else that does well cooked on charcoal. 

Just heat our White Charcoal Sticks, empty them into the centre compartment, and you're good to go. (Please note some charcoal may need breaking down before being placed into the central compartment.)

We highly recommend pairing with a good drink, a nice view, and good company.
