On October 18, MXN JAPAN Co., Ltd. announced a gift set of a rice bowl and an earthenware pot, sold at the pop-up of the Korean ceramic brand "SOILBAKER." The venue is "Scene12" on the 12th floor of Shibuya Scramble Square, as part of "DISTRICT SEOUL SHIBUYA EDITION," an event introducing Korean food and lifestyle.
A gift set combining the MIDAM rice bowl and earthenware pot
The item on sale is the "[MIDAM] Cauldron Rice Bowl & Earthenware Pot Gift Set." The company describes it as a set that reinterprets traditional shapes for the modern table, inspired by old Korean kitchens and cauldrons.
On the left in the photo is a white rice bowl with a flared band around its body, paired with a wooden lid. On the right, the black earthenware pot has handles on both sides and a lid with a knob.
"SOILBAKER" is a brand that makes tableware for everyday meals. Ceramic artists, designers and chefs are involved in making the pieces.
Checking how to use the pot and rice bowl
The brand's official FAQ states that the "MIDAM MIM Ddukbaegi" earthenware pot is compatible with direct flame, oven, microwave and halogen heaters, but not with induction heating (IH). Because these conditions differ from those of ordinary ceramics, the rice bowl in the set may not be usable with the same heat sources. Please check the handling labels on the actual product at the venue when you buy.
The domestic retail price for this sale is not stated in the published materials. Please check the price, as well as the colors and sizes of the products on sale, at the sales floor before purchasing.
