Flower-shaped small dish with white-brown crystal glaze

This small plate is made by shaping coarse white clay, which allows the glaze color to stand out, into a cute four-petal flower shape. It is finished by applying a white-brown crystalline glaze with beautiful unique crystals and a soft off-white matte glaze. I usually aim to create pieces that are as light and simple in form as possible, but this time I deliberately made the pieces thicker, hoping to create a piece that allows you to enjoy the plump texture of the clay and the weight that fits comfortably in your hand, which is unique to ceramics. The cute shape will add an accent to your dining table. During meals, it can be used for pickles, rolled omelets, and other small Japanese dishes. For tea time, you can enjoy Japanese sweets, small cakes, baked goods, chocolates, etc. I would be very happy if you could use it as a little color on your table. I use a small electric kiln and an electric potter's wheel at home to make my pottery, and I do all of the processes by hand, from kneading the clay to shaping, bisque firing, glazing, and final firing. Although we cannot mass-produce them, each one has its own unique expression, and you can enjoy the flavor that comes from being made by hand. The item you receive will be the same as the product image. The installation surface will be sanded down to avoid damaging the table as much as possible. Using various glazes and clays, I create a wide variety of pottery in different colors and shapes, searching for the best combinations. It is impossible to create two identical pieces, so although they may look similar, each piece is unique. I would be very happy if you could find your favorite. We hope you will enjoy the unique atmosphere and texture of pottery, created by the clay and glaze, as a way to add color to your daily life. --- *Size and weight* Size: Diameter 10.3cm, Base diameter 7cm, Height 2cm Weight: 153g --- *Precautions for purchase and use - Due to its nature, pottery is absorbent, and in some cases color may stain the crazing or moisture may seep out.
