Traditional arts in modern life A cute bowl with an indigo leaf pattern decorating the rim. The carefully decorated shinogi decorations give you a sense of the warmth and sure craftsmanship of the craftsmen. The elegant and mature designs are 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. The slight shading of color that is visible due to the unevenness of the shinogi gives expression to the pottery. Free for both Japanese and Western styles The slightly smaller bowl is easy to use for classic Japanese dishes such as pumpkin stew and gomoku ni（stewed dish）. It's the perfect size as a salad bowl for one person. The blue color of the painting complements the green and red, making it a great addition to any salad. 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 number of years 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.
