The craftsmanship of Yamanaka Lacquerware shines through in this matte lacquered oryoki. The smaller size is recommended for those with small appetites or for children. Alternatively, you can use the largest size as a rice bowl and prepare a separate soup bowl of your favorite size.

Oryoki, is a functional set of bowls designed to minimize waste in daily life in the practice of Zen Buddhism. It is increasingly attracting attention for its easy-to-use, functional, and minimalistic design at the modern table. The charm of oryoki is, first of all, its compact storage. All the bowls fit inside the largest bowl, so even if you have a set of five layers, you won't have trouble finding a place to store them.

Starting with the larger bowl, the smaller ones are stacked completely on top of each other in order to allow for compact storage and carrying. 

Since this is a nested product of several bowls, each requires elaborate woodworking to ensure a perfect fit. For this reason, this oryoki is handled by the most skilled craftsmen among Yamanaka lacquerware products.
