Glazed and fired by hand, this plate carries the quiet character of something made individually — the surface not perfectly uniform, the rim shaped by a hand rather than a machine. It sits well on any table, with any food. Sachiko Niijima forms and glazes each plate by hand in Japan, working at a pace that allows every piece to receive full attention. The result is a plate made to hold food well — and to be noticed on the table. Japanese ceramics have been treasured across the world for generations, and a plate like this brings that living tradition to your own table. Formed and finished by hand. The glaze settles differently on every piece, so no two are alike. Yours will differ a little from the one photographed — that is the hand of the maker. Material: porcelain Made in Japan Artisan: Sachiko Niijima Size: 9 × 1.6 cm (3.5 × 0.6 in) Because each piece is individually made, slight variations in form and glaze are the mark of a true handmade object.
