Traditional arts in modern life A cute plate with an indigo leaf pattern decorating the edges. Images are for illustrative purposes only. The elegant indigo leaf pattern is carefully drawn one by one using a traditional technique called "sometsuke". Although it is delicate, it is full of gentle loveliness. One of the charms of Arita ware is its transparent, slightly bluish white color and smooth texture. It has a soft atmosphere that perfectly complements your usual dishes. Always by your side The size makes it easy to use for a variety of purposes, such as serving side dishes for one person or using it as a serving plate. The pattern on the rim makes boiled pumpkin, dashi-rolled eggs, and the usual side dishes look elegant. The center is flat, so it would also be great as a cake plate. Regardless of the genre, whether it's Japanese, Western, or Chinese, the design and texture make the food stand out. They can also be stacked, so it's a good idea to have multiple copies for your family or guests.

Doing so may cause red, gold, or silver paint to peel off or darken. ・After using the utensils, wash them as soon as possible and dry them thoroughly. 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. ・Since the painting and glazing work is done by hand, there may be slight differences in the pattern, color shading, glaze color, and application method. ・Since the soil contains a lot of iron, there may be small light brown or black dots on the surface of the pot, but this does not cause any problem in use. ・Recommended for those who want to enjoy the warm texture that is unique to handmade products, each with a different look. ・Since it does not absorb water, it is difficult to get stains, mold, etc., and is easy to handle. ・Depending on the age of use, small scratches from forks and knives may become noticeable (especially since olive glaze is soft). ・Prices may be reviewed or revised depending on the artist or pottery.
