These ceramic bowls feature an earthen-coloured glaze with a pattern known as 'Kyo Sendan' (A thousand ancient lines) that represents longevity and vitality through its long, unbroken lines. The delicate line pattern is formed in the earliest stages of production, creating a touchable, three-dimensional effect to their finish. This size is best for sharing dishes around the table, or for storing and displaying fruits or sweets, especially on special occasions. Being dishwasher and microwave safe, these are durable and easy to care for. Designed and made in Japan.
