This exquisite side plate is inspired by the kikyo, or balloon flower, a motif cherished in Japanese culture for its graceful form. The soft pink glaze imparts a gentle charm, reminiscent of spring’s fleeting beauty. Its subtle sheen catches the light, revealing a delicate variation in color.

Expertly crafted using carving techniques reminiscent of fine woodwork, its textured surface adds depth and dimension. From the side, the plate’s sharply defined edges and exceptionally thin rim evoke the image of a flower in full bloom, bringing a touch of quiet refinement to the table.

Ideal for serving small dishes and desserts, this plate enhances presentation whether used alone or paired with other tableware. With its understated beauty, it is a versatile addition to any dining setting—perfect for everyday use, special occasions, or as a thoughtful gift.
