Great supporting role that decorates the dining table
I'm glad you find it useful no matter how many you have. Azumaya's small plate adds a Japanese touch to your dining table. 
The shape of a gourd is a lucky charm motif. Although it is small, it will brighten up your dining table. Soy sauce, pickles, snacks, condiments, etc. Great for everyday use or special occasions. Serve with chocolate or small cookies and enjoy a relaxing drink with your favorite tea. It would also be nice to arrange several on a large plate or tray. When you add it to your dining table, it instantly creates a lively and heartwarming atmosphere.

What you need to know before purchasing
-The charm of handmade items lies in the fact that no two items are exactly alike, with pinholes, penetrations, distortions, and the like, and that the colors, size, and shape of each piece vary slightly from one to another.
-The coloring, size, and shape of each piece is slightly different, and the charm of handmade items lies in the fact that they are not exactly the same.
-The finish is relatively uniform, but because it is handmade, there are individual differences in shape, size, color, and so on. Uneven color/uneven firing Because the glaze is applied by hand, the glaze may not be applied evenly. The firing process is also uneven because the temperature varies depending on the firing location in the kiln.
