A small plate with a peaceful image of swallows flying through the sky. 
A design that makes you feel happy, like finding a swallow in the spring sky. The transparent slightly, bluish white color and smooth texture are the unique charms of Arita ware. The auspicious hexagonal shape can be used for everyday use as well as for celebrations. The simple colors go well with other pottery, making it a perfect addition to your everyday dining table. 
For chopstick rest, for tea ceremony
When it's time for a relaxing tea, enjoy a little sweetened soybean. It might be a good idea to serve pickled cucumbers or kelp to accompany the rice. 
The edges have just the right amount of rise, so they're perfect for serving with soy sauce or other sauces. It can also be used as a tray for accessories such as earrings and rings that tend to get lost. You can also stack them, so you'll want to have one for your family and for guests.

Arita ware
Arita ware is porcelain manufactured in Arita Town, Saga Prefecture, and its surrounding areas. It is said to be the first porcelain made in Japan, and has been widely used as tableware and crafts for over 400 years. Arita ware has a strong image of transparent white porcelain and decoration, but there are also many products that use brightly colored glazes, giving a rich variety of colors to your dining table.

-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 firing process is also uneven because the temperature varies depending on the firing location in the kiln.
