Design to add flair to your dining table
A deep plate with a lovely soft texture. 
The shape of the wreath makes it look like flowers have bloomed on the dining table, and just having one of them will brighten up the atmosphere. The slightly uneven surface and the sunspots and pinholes that appear and disappear here and there are the unique charms of earthenware. Lay out some light-colored linen, set out some brass cutlery, and it's time for a fun meal! 
Helpful items that will make any dish look great
Boiled broccoli and cherry tomatoes make it a great dish on its own. It's the perfect size to put a few side dishes on. The edges are gently raised, so you can safely use it for slightly juicy dishes such as marinated salmon and pickles. 
It's also great as a dessert plate, topped with tiramisu or brownies. You can also stack them, so it's a good idea to have one for your family and for guests.

| Kiln's recommendation Maintenance | ・Kowahiki is water-absorbent and tends to leave stains, so we recommend sealing it before use. Most water stains disappear when dry, but if used without sealing, oil stains and stains from dark colors such as soy sauce and coffee tend to remain. ・When serving oily foods, soak them in water before use to prevent stains. ・After using the utensils, wash them as soon as possible and dry them thoroughly. Insufficient drying may cause mold and odors. |
| Product characteristics/ Handling precautions |
・As it is handmade, there may be individual differences in color, shape, size, thickness, etc. ・There may be pinholes, and the pattern and color may differ. ・Recommended for those who want to enjoy the warm texture that is unique to handmade products, each with a different look. ・As you use it, it may become colored or darken over time. We hope you enjoy the change over time as a flavor. ・Penetration (cracks in the surface glaze) may occur during the use process, but this is not a crack or damage and does not affect use. ・Prices may be reviewed or revised depending on the artist or pottery. |

Special ``powdered white plates''
We work every day to create ``powdered white items'' that complement any dish, add elegance, and provide warmth. We are also particular about the soil we use, and use our own unique soil for potter's wheel and tatara molding. The fabric is molded from red clay, coated with white mud, glazed and fired. To make it comfortable to use and microwave safe, it is not coated with any chemicals or liquid ceramics after firing. Instead, by repeating the firing process called ``honyaki'' twice, the product is made more durable and of a quality that can be used safely in daily life. Thoughts on items "The most important time in daily life" It's a time when families gather together to eat dinner and relax while drinking tea or coffee. In order to make that time more fulfilling, we strive to create pottery that can gently be a part of people's lives. “Powdered White” is a white with a gentle expression. It's a simple white that complements any dish and can be used every day. In addition, the gentle, rustic earthiness that emerges from beneath the surface of the pottery gives it an extremely deep feel. We would be most happy if you could use and enjoy the warmth of our Japanese tableware in your daily life.

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.
