Hokusai "Great Wave" Morizara Serving Dish 24.5cm

🌊 This is a generously sized and deep serving dish, inspired by Hokusai Katsushika's renowned ukiyo-e print, "The Great Wave off Kanagawa." The dynamic waves, shadowy boats, and distant Mount Fuji nearly cover the entire surface. The colors have been muted for a tranquil blue-gray tone, complemented by a darker rim. Beyond the vibrant composition of the original artwork, this design offers a touch of understated elegance and stability. 【What is a Morizara (Serving Dish)?】 Japanese dining customs often involve various small plates for individual portions. A "morizara," or serving dish, is used for larger, shared main courses and serves as the focal point of the table's arrangement and visual presentation. Therefore, a morizara emphasizes not only practicality but also the decorative qualities of the vessel itself and its harmony with the food. Sometimes, unique shapes or elevated designs are employed to add layers and presence to the dining table. This piece measures approximately 24.5cm in diameter and 7.5cm in depth. Its wide and deep form is perfect for holding substantial main courses. The interior is fully decorated with "The Great Wave off Kanagawa." As food is served, the design and the cuisine complement each other, gradually revealing the complete image as portions are taken. This truly showcases the morizara's role as the star of the dining table. ※ Microwave safe, not for open flame use. ※ Comes with a paper box. ※ Product Dimensions: Diameter 24.5 × Height 7.5 cm ※ Each piece is handcrafted by artisans.
