The "Cat Water Bowl" with Thoughtful Design and Functionality
RINN's new product, the "Cat Water Bowl," is an item crafted by a kiln owner specializing in Otaniyaki, a specialty product of Tokushima. RINN plans and sells the product, which is manufactured by SUEKI CERAMICS, a kiln with over 130 years of history.
The glaze used in the "Cat Water Bowl" is made from carefully selected high-quality materials from Tokushima, such as Otani's red clay and Awa's blue stone. The vessel, imbued with the dedication developed through repeated testing with over 20,000 types of materials, features a Nordic-inspired color palette and a matte finish. It is available in three colors: ivory, blue gray, and smoky pink.
Although the vessel has a seemingly simple design, its structure was supervised by a veterinarian. The height, depth, and size are carefully considered to reduce strain on the cat's neck while drinking, and it possesses a moderate weight and stability. The bowl has a generous capacity of 350 milliliters, allowing for a plentiful amount of water. Packaged in an original box, it also makes an ideal gift for cat lovers.
