Seji Okuda makes contrasting black and white ceramic plates in Shigaraki. Shigaraki is known as one of Japan's most famous ceramic towns, and there are many pottery shops along the main road that runs through the heart of Shigaraki, with many ceramic artists living in the area. Okuda was born and raised in Shiga Prefecture, and his father was one of Shigaraki's ceramic artists and teachers. From a young age, he watched his father work and was surrounded by ceramics every day. However, becoming a ceramic artist wasn't his childhood dream.
One day, Okuda accidentally meets the man who will become his future teacher, a ceramicist from Shigaraki. Okuda decides to pay him a short visit, just to talk with him and his friend.
The time spent there took Okuda back to his childhood and sparked new energy and enthusiasm in his heart for ceramics.

Maintenance tips
Pour assurer la longévité de votre planche à découper, nous recommandons un entretien régulier avec de l’huile minérale alimentaire et de la cire d’abeille.
- Cire d’abeille : À titre préventif, appliquez une fine couche sur la surface de la planche. Laissez pénétrer quelques heures, puis retirez l’excédent avec un essuie-tout. Assurez-vous d’utiliser une cire d’abeille adaptée à un usage alimentaire.
- Huile minérale : Dès que la planche montre des signes de sécheresse, appliquez généreusement de l’huile minérale neutre. Laissez pénétrer et renouvellez l’application si nécessaire jusqu’à absorption complète. Essuyez ensuite l’excédent. L’huile doit impérativement être de qualité alimentaire.
- Ponçage occasionnel : Une à deux fois par an, effectuez un ponçage manuel avec du papier abrasif grain 400-600 pour lisser la surface et refermer les pores du bois. Appliquez ensuite une nouvelle couche de cire d’abeille pour protéger la planche.
