The items of this series are crafted using a technique known as shakugake or nagashikake. In this technique, artisans create subtle drip patterns by pouring glaze over the surface of the piece with a wooden shaku ladle while spinning it on the potter’s wheel. The varied patterns that emerge are preserved as free-flowing trails of thick glaze, creating unique landscapes across the face of each piece. We then tastefully finish each piece with a one-of-a-kind pattern using a deep, ink-like gosu pigment.

22 cm Plate: This shallow flat plate is great for main dishes and one-plate meals as well curries and other dishes where a plain plate just won’t do. It is sure to add a dignified touch to your table.

15 cm Plate: This medium plate works perfectly as a serving dish. Its shallow form factor is great for serving cakes yet deep enough for juicier dishes like stews, sure to add a dignified touch to your table.

10 cm Plate: This small bowl is just right for serving appetizers or as a saucer for soy sauce and other condiments. Its shallow form factor is versatile and is sure to add a dignified touch to your table.

⚠️ The patterns and consistency of the glaze may be uneven on this product due to the application of glaze using a shaku ladle. As every piece has its handmade feature, slight irregularities in size, glaze, colour and texture might occur and reflect the nature of the artisan product.
