ORIGAMI was born from baristas’ desire for better coffee tools. The brand was developed at a time when interest in Specialty coffee was growing rapidly, with the ambition of creating professional products adapted to modern brewing. The starting point was to work closely with baristas, learn from their needs, and develop together with them.
A large part of the production takes place in Toki City in Gifu, an area known for its long tradition of Mino ceramics. It was also there that the first dripper took shape. The design was inspired by the balloon flower, the city’s flower, and refined through repeated testing until it featured the 20 ribs that characterize the series today. Over time, ORIGAMI has become a name used by baristas around the world, appreciated for its consistent quality, thoughtful design, and ability to combine function with a clear visual identity.
In this collection, you’ll mainly find two expressions of the same brewing concept: porcelain models for those who appreciate weight and a classic feel, and lighter AS resin versions that are especially well suited when you want low weight at home, in the office, or on the go. All main models are made in Japan, designed for 2–4 cups, compatible with both conical filters and wave paper filters, and designed to provide good air circulation and controlled water flow through their characteristic 20-ribbed shape.
