By intentionally adding \"U\" to \"ALONG\" to evoke a Japanese romanization, and combining it with the kanji \"明論具\" (meirongu), we express that while these vessels embrace the diverse, cross-national nature of contemporary dining, they are unmistakably crafted in Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe designer is Jin Kuramoto, a product designer known for his work on HAY's \"KNIT,\" arflex Japan's \"JK,\" and audio technica's wireless earphones, among other electronics. This is Mr. Kuramoto's first venture into tableware among his many product designs. The art direction is handled by graphic designer Rei Masaki. Having grown up in New York and been active in Tokyo since 2017, Mr. Masaki, a Japanese-American, brings a borderless, cross-national expression to the world of \"ALONGU\" through his unique perspective.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ALONGU series challenges the perception of porcelain products having uniform finishes. Instead, it is crafted to allow you to enjoy the unique characteristics and subtle variations in the material's expression, intentionally pursuing a wide range of finishes, including glazes with rich expressive qualities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAbout ALONGU Quality Control Standards\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile we only sell products that have passed the manufacturer's inspection, please be aware of the following product characteristics:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\"Yakishime\" products are unglazed and fired at high temperatures.
