Matte black rimmed plate to show off the color of your food

Plate Feature 1

A brand that brings out the new appeal of Kyo-yaki and Kiyomizu-yaki

This is a rim plate of Kyoto's pottery, Kyo-yaki and Kiyomizu-yaki. All processes of Kyo-yaki and Kiyomizu-yaki pottery are done by hand. For this reason, they are highly rare and valuable ceramics whose techniques have been carefully passed down from the Azuchi-Momoyama period to the present day.

Tohken-gama, which manufactures these plates, is a relatively new brand established in 2002. While skilled craftsmen continue the tradition of Kiyomizu-yaki, young artisans are taking on the challenge of creating new products.

The kiln's unique pieces, which combine high design and functionality, bring out the new appeal of Kyo-yaki and Kiyomizu-yaki pottery.

Plate Feature 2

Unique piece in matte black

The entire plate is black in color. As can be seen from its appearance, it has a matte texture. When touched by hand, it has a unique light touch, giving it the warmth of a handmade product. The iron-like black color and the uneven color and shading of the glaze on the surface give the dish a unique character.

Many pitch-black plates are glossy and luxurious, but this plate is a rare gem that also has an unadorned simplicity. Because of its simplicity, it can be coordinated with a variety of dishes on hand.

Plate Feature 3

Easy-to-use platter! Enhance the taste of any dish!

The black-colored plate, like the white plate, is a versatile player that makes food look more colorful. The entire plate is a 10.24 in. (26cm) platter that can be used for any purpose, from main dishes such as meat and fish, side dishes such as salads, a la carte dishes such as pasta, and fruit platters.

The rim of the plate also allows for a reasonable amount of space after serving, so you don't have to think too much about how to arrange the food. Not only Japanese and Western dishes, but also Chinese dishes such as stir-fries, fried noodles, and dumplings look stylish when quickly arranged!

It can also be used as a one-plate dish for mornings and lunches, or as an entertaining dish for guests.

Dishwasher and microwave safe! Recommended for busy families!

It is dishwasher and microwave safe. It can be used for reheating and can be washed in the dishwasher with other dishes after eating, making it a convenient item for a wide range of uses from busy working couples to families raising children.

Traditional crafts are sometimes considered inconvenient because of their delicacy, but this plate is so functional that you will want to use it every day.

Detail of plate 2

Shallow rim near flat

The plate is about 0.59 in. (1.5cm) high and not very deep. Although it appears to be a flat plate, the rim allows for the serving of soupy dishes.

It is also moderately thick, but weighs only 1.15 lbs (520g), not too heavy for a plate of this size, another point for ease of use. No matter how many plates you have, they take up little space when stacked and stored.
