Nagako Fujita Brass Butter Knife

Eiko Fujita creates "tools for living" such as tableware, interiors, and accessories using the "forging" technique, which involves hammering and deforming metal.

Her works, mainly made from copper, brass, and tin, are vessels with a worldview, meticulously crafted over time, paying close attention to every detail, including form, processing method, and texture.
Although Ms. Fujita also creates objects and tea ceremony utensils, a characteristic of her work is the abundance of modern pieces, as she proposes "metal works that can be easily incorporated into daily life, and a lifestyle with metal."

While metalware is not commonly used in Japan, it has frequently appeared throughout history and is still used for everyday purposes in many countries overseas.
Ms. Fujita's metalworks are vessels that can be naturally incorporated into your dining table and interior.
Metal, a material different from ceramics and glass, offers new inspiration to daily life.

●Message from Ms. Fujita●
I believe that the aging of metal is not generally well-understood.
Many people perceive "rust" as a negative thing, but it is actually the charm of metal's aging process.
We can provide re-sulfurization finishing and re-wax coating services for a fee.
