To Care Microwave safe: No Dishwasher safe: No Refrigerator safe: Yes About the designer 1616/arita japan products are produced in the same factories as the original Arita pottery but take a completely different design approach. 1616/arita japan stands for contemporary products that can be used every day, though made with the extraordinary workmanship, thinness, and strength of original Arita ware. Based on extensive research on Arita ceramics and an analysis of historical local masterpieces, Scholten & Baijings created a series named Colour Porcelain. Typical Japanese colors, such as aquarelle-blue, light green, red-orange, and ochre, are recontextualized and applied in new combinations on a set of contemporary, highly functional tableware that in its entirety still reflect the typical Arita color spectrum. Layered color compositions are carried out in various textures and shades of glaze and are combined with the natural white of the porcelain itself. Made with a delicate sense for local crafts and industry, Colour Porcelain shows an original European perspective on Japanese tradition.
