Tasteful hand-painted texture This small plate is a subtle accent on your dining table. Images are for illustrative purposes only. The red bird drawn with a fine brush on the gray background is impressive. Small camellia flowers drawn on the four corners add cuteness. The red paint is a special red that takes 1,000 days to create by grinding the red pattern that is the raw material. The color will deepen as you use it, so please enjoy the changes. Small but hard working Pickles, chopstick rests, and leftover side dishes. It's a very convenient size when you want to serve just a few side dishes.

Things you should know before purchasing What creates the expression of pottery is things that cannot be seen in mass-produced items, such as spots, scratches, unevenness in the glaze, shading, and bending of the shape. The charm of handmade pottery is that it may have pinholes, intrusions, distortions, etc., and is not perfectly arranged, but each one is slightly different in color, size, and shape, and no two are exactly the same. Please enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime encounter as these are the unique characteristics of handmade pottery. 【Individual difference】 Because each piece is handmade, there are individual differences in shape, size, thickness, and pattern. [Uneven color/uneven baking] Since the glaze is applied by hand, the glaze may not be applied evenly. During firing, the temperature varies depending on the location of the kiln, resulting in uneven firing.
