Finished with a deep, lustrous Oribe glaze, this hand-shaped sauce plate reflects the quiet sophistication of Japanese pottery while remaining perfectly suited for everyday use.

A base coat of ki-Seto glaze—a pale yellow glaze unique to Mino ware—is first applied, then layers of Oribe glaze are brushed by hand, creating subtle variations in tone and depth. The unglazed underside retains the earthy touch of raw clay, creating a striking harmony with the glossy surface above, a balance of refinement and nature.

Made for the table yet mindful of space, the low profile sits steady. It’s sized for small appetizers and condiments, but also works for pickles, spices, or small sweets. Presented in an elegant box, this plate makes a thoughtful gift or a graceful addition to your own table.
