Japanese tableware and homeware from Made in Japan UK

Made in Japan UK (MIJ) sells Japanese tableware, kitchenware, homeware, gardening goods and gifts, presented as hand-crafted in Japan. The range is organised both by product type and by collection, and the shop states that it serves both household customers and wholesale buyers.

Tableware and kitchenware

The tableware catalogue covers plates, bowls, drinkware, sauce dishes and soy pots, chopsticks and rests, cutlery and dinner sets. Within kitchenware, the shop lists knives, kitchen tools, pots and pans, Konro and Hibachi grills, food storage, chopping boards, knife racks and dishcloths. Named pieces in the catalogue include the Earth & Sky large udon bowl (19cm), the Aurora Ramen Bowl (22cm), the Copper Swirl Udon Bowl (19cm), the Earth & Sky high rim (22cm), the Recycled White Sand high rim (22cm), the Lopsided Mug in white and bisque (275ml), a nitrided carbon steel frying pan (26cm), a Gestura stainless steel serving spoon (23.5cm) and a Kai Shun Classic scalloped Santoku knife (18cm).

Homeware, daily rituals and gardening

Beyond the kitchen, the homeware section groups books and stationery, storage and tool boxes, clocks, lighting and furniture, furoshiki and bags, botanical items, kintsugi and 2027 calendars. A separate daily rituals line brings together towels and blankets, beauty and grooming products, incense and candles, socks and slippers, and soaps. Gardening goods are presented as crafted for precision and everyday care; the catalogue cites Niwaki garden snips among its examples. The site also lists a scented round ball soap, a Fig Plus rubber in a Mt. Fuji design and a Humade kintsugi kit in gold.

Collections and product lines

Several glazes and finishes are marketed as named collections: Aurora, Earth & Sky, Black Pearl, Nin-Rin, Fade and Sky Blue. A kids section offers tableware, stationery, toys and storage for children, with examples such as a Japanese origami paper block and book, a Cocomo hinoki wooden animal toy in the shape of a horse, and Sakura Cray-Pas crayons in 12 colours. The shop also carries a sale section described as a handpicked limited selection of tableware and homeware.

Gifts and seasonal selection

Gifting is treated as its own area, with gift sets, gift vouchers, gift wrap, a lucky gift selection and a Christmas section. The Christmas range is divided by price and recipient, including gifts under £25, under £50 and over £50, stocking fillers, gifts for cooks and gifts for home, boxed Christmas gifts and a selection labelled Rosie & Philip's Christmas Picks. A gift box of two pairs of KURABI chopsticks in black and white and an aroma ornament cat in chiffon appear among the gift examples.

Brands, sourcing and making

The shop groups products by brand and maintains pages on the Japanese making process and a care guide. It states that its products are expertly crafted by artisans in Japan, with the claim that skill and dedication go into the distinctive tableware. The site also carries a journal section.

Stockist and wholesale

Made in Japan products can be seen and bought in person at Found, a lifestyle boutique in Redbrick Mill, 218 Bradford Road, Batley, WF17 6JF, described as sitting within Yorkshire's homeware shopping destination. A separate wholesale line is offered alongside the retail business, with its own telephone number listed in the site's contact details.

Shipping and recognition

The site advertises free UK shipping on orders over £75 and next-day delivery as an available option. It also states that the products are recommended by top chefs and displays a Trustpilot reference alongside customer comments, including one attributed to Samira Effa, head chef at EightyEight Grantley Hall. Prices shown in the catalogue at the time of writing include £19.00 for the Copper Swirl Udon Bowl, £22.00 for the Earth & Sky high rim and the Recycled White Sand high rim, £16.00 for the Lopsided Mug and £30.00 to £32.00 for ROTOTO double face wool and cotton crew socks.
