During many discussions we’ve had over the years, the subject of creating a brand that elevates the experience and lifts textiles up to a level of other iconic Danish design brands kept coming back. We spotted a gap in the market where we could really make a difference with the kind of proposition we’ve had in our minds. One Spring, we simply decided to give it a shot. Three and a half years later - we are ready to show a glimpse of what we’ve been working on! - Dominika Leveau
TOMAYA's positive contributions stem from our dedication to designing objects that not only serve a functional purpose but also create meaningful connections between people and the items they use daily. We focus on crafting timeless pieces from durable materials like wood, metal, and ceramics, ensuring they age gracefully and can be cherished for generations. By prioritizing quality over quantity, we encourage a more mindful lifestyle, where fewer but better-made objects take center stage—designed to be repaired, handed down, and integrated into life’s stories. - Tom & Maya
The historic town of Hasami in Nagasaki Prefecture is one of the foremost pottery districts in Japan. Hasami began crafting its porcelainware almost 400 years ago during the Edo period, distributing them throughout Japan as well as to Europe through the port of Nagasaki. Hasami craftsmen were able to develop a highly efficient system to mass produce their porcelain products thereby making them more consistent in quality and reasonable in price. HASAMI PORCELAIN was designed by Takuhiro Shinomoto of Tortoise in Venice, CA whose vision was to integrate modern tableware design with the organic quality produced by traditional Japanese manufacturing techniques. - ENTER THE LOFT
