Turn your kitchen into a studio.


Daily cooking is not merely the task of preparing meals.

It's about gazing at the grain of the wood.

Picking up a small knife.

Cutting and plating ingredients, preparing them for your family or yourself.

In each of these acts, there is room to enjoy life.

Somaé believes that the kitchen is not just a place for cooking,
but a space where our daily sensibilities gradually develop.

Even in our busy everyday lives, touching our tools can lift our spirits a little.

Everyday cooking can become a time that feels a little more like our own.

Transform your kitchen into an atelier.

Somaé is a brand of tools that brings small joys of creation into your life.

The Name Somaé

Somaé is a name inspired by the Japanese word "soma," meaning a person who cultivates and fells trees in the forest, and the French word "émoi," meaning a surge of emotion or excitement.

From the bounty of the forest, to your everyday kitchen.
And into tools that spark a little joy with every use.

Each piece of wood has a different character. No two are alike in color, grain, or texture.

Somaé cherishes the individuality created by nature, and delivers tools that can be loved and used for a long time in daily life.

What Somaé values

  • Bringing the blessings of the forest into our lives

    We deliver wood grown in the forest as everyday tools, making the most of the unique characteristics of natural materials such as grain and color.

  • Small Joys for Every Day

    Bringing comfort and joy to your everyday cooking.

  • Repair and use for a long time

    Through sharpening, repairs, and maintenance, we deliver tools that grow more cherished the more you use them.
