Ogatsu stone products, made from this black, hard phyllite dating back approximately 200 to 300 million years, are not just beautiful crafts but also have practical value. They are known for their pure black color, resistance to compression and bending, low water absorption rate, and resistance to chemical reactions and long-term age-related changes. Especially, Ogatsu stone plates are characterized by uniform particles and gloss, and excellent heat and cold retention. This performance has been scientifically proven in experiments using thermography conducted with the cooperation of the Miyagi Prefectural Industrial Technology Center, showing that Ogatsu stone plates have superior heat and cold retention compared to ordinary ceramic plates. Thus, Ogatsu stone products are recognized not only for their beauty but also for their practicality and special value.
