Kaico Series
Tokyo based Japanese designer Makoto Koizumi has created this beautifully simple and award-winning cookware series – Kaico. The series includes a tea pot, coffee pot, pasta pot with a steel strainer insert, as well as various sauce pans.
Created in white enamel coated steel with maple wood handles, the Kaico series certainly has a classic yet rudimentary aesthetic to its pieces, as well as being durable and thermal-efficient. Because of the smooth, semi-gloss finish, the cookware is also easy to clean.
These would undoubtedly be a welcome addition to my kitchen from a visual perspective, but I’d be interested to know if anyone has previously bought any pieces from the Kaico series and what their thoughts are.

Beautiful! Love the old/new qualities. Great find!
If you like these then you should absolutely test-drive the John Pawson-designed pots and pans for the Belgian company, Demeyere. I have two of the Dutch ovens and one frying pan and they are works of art in terms of form and function.
Very nice. Would love to see a stainless steel version.
I know the John Pawson designs as well, although never seen them in real life. Not sure if I want to spend that much money on pots and pans, though…
