Ginpo Hana Mishima Donabe Japanese Clay Pot - 28cm (Size 9)

The Hana Mishima series is one of the most iconic styles of donabe, instantly recognisable by its light grey finish and traditional floral (hana) pattern.

This large Size 9 pot (3.2L) is the family and entertaining size, serving four to five — built for the shared hot pot at the centre of the table, from mizutaki to a full nabe party. The thick clay cooks gently and keeps everything warm through the meal. This is the standard version for gas and electric cooktops; the same pot is also available as an induction-compatible version.

What's Included

  • 1 x Ginpo Hana Mishima Donabe with Lid - 28cm (Size 9)

Steam with it: This pot is steamer compatible — add the Touga Steamer Plate - 23cm (Size 9) to steam vegetables, dumplings and fish above the broth.

 

Key Features

  • Iconic Hana Mishima Design: The beloved traditional floral pattern on a classic light grey glaze, emblematic of authentic Japanese donabe.
  • Family Size 9 for 4–5: Sized for the shared hot pot at the centre of the table.
  • Superior Heat Retention: High-quality clay heats slowly and retains heat exceptionally well.
  • Lead & Cadmium-Free: Crafted to meet strict Japanese safety standards.
  • Made in Japan: Authentic Banko ware from Yokkaichi, a region famous for durable donabe since the 18th century.

Seasoning & Care

Before first use, perform medome (rice porridge seasoning) to seal the clay and prevent cracking or leaking. Full step-by-step instructions are in our donabe user guide.

  • Avoid sudden temperature changes (e.g. do not put a cold pot on high heat, or place a hot pot on a cold or wet surface).
  • Hand wash only once cooled. Do not soak for extended periods.
  • Dry thoroughly before storage to prevent mould.

Use & Care
  • User guide: Everything from first use to everyday care.
  • First use: Simmer rice porridge in your new donabe first — the starch seals the porous clay and strengthens the pot.
  • Before cooking: Make sure the outside base is completely dry before it goes on the flame — a wet base can crack.
  • Never heat empty: Always have liquid or food in the pot before heating.
  • Avoid sudden temperature changes: Don't run cold water into a hot pot — let it cool first.
  • Storage: Dry thoroughly before putting away to prevent mould in the porous clay.
Good to Know
  • How donabe is made: The special clay behind these pots and why it matters.
  • How donabe ages: Fine lines and colour changes over time aren't flaws — they're character.
  • Heat source: Donabe is made for open flame and shines on a gas burner — it's not suitable for induction cooktops.
  • Donabe recipes: Hotpots, rice and more to get you started.
