Vivid painting Each piece is carefully decorated with a simple and cute long rectangular plate. Smooth to the touch. In some places, you can feel the grainy texture that is unique to clay. There are individual differences in black spots, glaze pools, and slight penetrations. Enjoy the rich expression of the soil and the unique texture of handmade products. Elegant appearance Fish fillets for breakfast, rice balls for lunch, sashimi, tempura, sushi for dinner... The gently curved edges allow you to serve even skewers with sauce.It will be fun to think about what to put on the plate today. Thick shiitake mushrooms grilled, garnished with grated radish, and topped with plenty of sudachi. Add a little bit of salted squid, pickled wasabi, and grilled mentaiko to accompany alcohol.

Insufficient drying may cause mold and odors. Product characteristics/Handling precautions ・As it is handmade, there may be individual differences in color, shape, size, thickness, etc. ・There may be pinholes, and the pattern and color may differ. ・Penetration (cracks in the surface glaze) may occur during the use process, but this is not a crack or damage and does not affect use. ・Prices may be reviewed or revised depending on the artist or pottery. About the style and atmosphere The charm is the cuteness of the paintings, each carefully painted in a calm atmosphere. Although it is a work that gives you a sense of tradition, it is a modern and easy-to-use pottery that suits modern life. I would be happy if you could feel the warmth of each product made by hand, which is not found in machine-produced products. As you can see in the photo, the differences in the appearance of the patterns, uneven coloring, and sagging that are created by chance due to firing and hand-molding are unique to handmade items. We hope you enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime encounter, where no two are the same. ■Others, list page. Minami Kiln list page ■You can also view other Mino ware pottery here. Please find your favorite.
