"Donabe" means clay pot in Japanese and it is one of Japan's oldest cooking vessels. Earthenware pots are made out of clay with properties ideal for operating at high temperatures during high heat cooking. It builts up heat slowly (similar to a slow-cooker, may take a longer time to initially heat up) but it keeps heat effective once it is at peak temperature.

The Sumi Kannyu series pots are very popular; noted for the designs, they convey the feeling of cleanliness with patterns you will always enjoy in any occasion
Sumi Kannyu cookware can be used over an open flame or in an oven (without the lid). Just make sure there is always some liquid in the base so your casserole does not burn.
