Kinto

KINTO is a Japanese design house in Shiga, Shiga Prefecture, that has been making considered everyday objects since 1972 — glassware, porcelain, wood, and stainless pieces engineered for the small daily rituals of coffee, tea, and the table. The line is quiet and modern, but every piece is built around how a cup actually feels in the hand or how a teapot actually pours. We carry KINTO at Marais Home because it slots naturally into the kind of curated, lived-in kitchens we design across Lexington, KY — pieces that look as good on an open shelf as they do in everyday use.

The KINTO edit at Marais Home leans into three categories: KINTO glassware (the CAST water and beer glasses, the KRONOS double-wall wine glass, the Play and Day Off tumblers), tea (the PEBBLE teapot, UNITEA cup and saucer, RIPPLE mug), and travel and everyday drinkware (the insulated Travel Tumbler, Active Tumbler, and Water Bottle).
