About the style and atmosphere
This series is based on the motif of traditional utensils and quince plates that have been loved since the Edo period. The quince is said to bring prosperity and good luck to descendants, and is one of the auspicious emblems often used in family crests. It features a modern take on a traditional form, with a design and color scheme that blends into everyday dining, whether Japanese or Western. Because the surface glaze processing is done by hand, the shape of the color and the shape of the crystals are each different, and the tasteful texture that can only be achieved by handwork is one of the attractive features. Please enjoy this “once in a lifetime” encounter!

Arita ware
In the early 17th century, Korean potter Yi San-pyeong discovered pottery stone in Izumiyama, Arita Town, and it was the first fired porcelain in Japan, making it one of Japan's most representative traditional crafts. Its transparent whiteness and gorgeous painting make it beautiful, giving it a thin, light, and delicate impression, but it is also hard, strong, and durable. Many of the pots are made of durable porcelain that can be used in the microwave and dishwasher, making them perfect for everyday use.

-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.
