Based in Yokohama, Japan, Yamada Kogyosho is a respected metal workshop known for its hand-hammered iron cookware. Each pan is shaped through a traditional forging process that involves thousands of strikes, creating subtle surface texture, lasting strength, and a finish that becomes more familiar with use. Loved by both professional kitchens and home cooks in Japan, Yamada Kogyosho’s cookware is celebrated for its thoughtful balance of durability, function, and everyday ease.
